Abstract
This paper discusses a development system of Web sites adapted to the preferences of each user. A markup language (AWUML - Adaptive Web site Usable Markup Language) based on XML technology is defined for use in the specification of the page contents, which guarantees the fulfillment of usability and accessibility requirements. Each user visualizes his own version of the web site resulting from the application of his profile, as much in presentation aspects as in content topics. The separation of document contents from its presentation makes maintenance of the web site easier. The use of this system facilitates access to the network, independent of the disabilities or the technical equipment limitations of the end user.
