This would be in line with thoughts I have heard from you that ARIA is for making content accessible and authors should not be prevented from making content accessible with ARIA. However, as sole content inside a link, it should probably be invalid to use role=presentation. -- Leif H SilliReceived on Tuesday, 3 May 2011 13:24:29 UTC
