RE: Findable help issues

Hi Lisa,

Sure, the latest version of the SC text and understanding is here:
https://w3c.github.io/wcag/understanding/findable-help.html


The basic issue here though is that ‘set of web pages’ hasn’t been used in this way before. How does a tester (or even the developer!) know whether a page belongs to a particular set of web pages.

Kind regards,

-Alastair

Hi Alistair
Can we have a link to the current wording of the SC?
It might make more sense to me then...
All the best
Lisa

Hi folks,

Last time we discussed Findable help, there were a couple of issues we couldn’t answer:
https://www.w3.org/2020/12/01-ag-minutes.html#item03


The resolution was to add some examples that try to answer the question. In doing so, we should be able to work out if the SC text will be testable.

The problem was that "Consistent Navigation" doesn't require that navigation be shown on all pages in the set, only that where it does show, it must show consistently.

I think this does put us under a burden of proof to show, either through examples or a definition update, how people can consistently identify whether any page is part of a set.

If that is too difficult, it might be a case for deferment because in Silver the person claiming conformance defines the process/task/set.
Kind regards,
