Have you seen the WAI-ARIA suite? You can find WAI-ARIA from the WAI
home page if you look under "Guidelines & Techniques" in the
navigation, and then follow the link to
<http://www.w3.org/WAI/intro/aria.php>Accessible Rich Internet
Applications (WAI-ARIA) Suite Overview
I think the Overview page will answer your questions. Also, there you
can find links to:
<http://www.w3.org/TR/wai-aria/>WAI-ARIA,
<http://www.w3.org/TR/wai-aria-primer/>Primer,
<http://www.w3.org/TR/wai-aria-practices/>Best Practices,
