Re: suggest deprecating alertdialog role in ARIA 1.1

Hi James,

I just tested the dialog.htm test case that you sent. I can't get it to 
work. Am using VoiceOver 3/Safari 5.1.3.

When I activate the 'Show the dialog' button the dialog window appears 
but no output from VO apart from the 'Dismiss' button. There is no 
notification that a dialog has appeared at all. When I use the VO+ 
cursor keys to explore the box I can get the text, and then VO will tell 
me that I am in a dialog box. I'm curious, is this the expected 
behaviour? Should the SR not announce to the user that a dialog box has 
appeared and they are within the content first?

Or is it a matter of where you place focus when the dialog window first 
appears?

Cheers

Josh
