The readonly attribute is a propety of grid and of gridcell. The default value of readonly is false. If I set aria-readonly=true on a grid because I do not want to allow cell editing, I am hoping that I do not have to also set aria-readonly=true on every grid cell? I didn't see that spelled out in the specification nor in the best practices so I would like clarification. Many grids will not have editable cells. Adding aria-readonly=true to the markup for each cell will add a fair amount to the page size, thus, it would be nice if the property on the grid would suffice. However, what if I want to have a grid that is mostly readonly with the exception of a few cells? Could I mark the grid as readonly=true and then mark only the cells I want to be edited as readonly=false? This needs clarification in the specification - how does the readonly property on the grid interact with the readonly property of contained gridcells? thanks, -becky Becky Gibson Web Accessibility Architect IBM Emerging Internet Technologies 5 Technology Park Drive Westford, MA 01886 Voice: 978 399-6101; t/l 333-6101 Email: gibsonb@us.ibm.com blog: weba11y.com/blogReceived on Friday, 6 March 2009 22:23:09 GMT
