Re: Proposal: Canvas accessibility and a media querries approach for alternative content (Action Item 6 in the HTML Accessibility Task Force)

HI henri,

keyboard users, seems like a waste of effort?

low-level enough.
 OK, but I am trying to understand why one would do this?
if you include a link in the canvas sub dom so it will be accessible to
users, why would you duplicate the functionality using script instead of
pointing the click event on the canvas to the link?

in the end if a single method is suitable for all users its a win for all
no?
