hi all, In yesterdays html accessibility task force meet [1] Charles McCathieNevile talked about Opera's intention to investigate the implementation of image maps on canvas as a method of providing keyboard interaction, focus and DOM based access to controls on a canvas (<area> + ARIA). here is a mockup of the idea (a transparent image map stretched over a canvas) I did a while back http://www.paciellogroup.com/blog/misc/canvas-pie/pie.html I did a little ad hoc testing and found that current support for ARIA roles on the area element is patchy. (works in IE not in Firefox) [1] minutes with addendum by scribe http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-html-a11y/2010Jan/0261.html -- with regards Steve Faulkner Technical Director - TPG Europe Director - Web Accessibility Tools Consortium www.paciellogroup.com | www.wat-c.org Web Accessibility Toolbar - http://www.paciellogroup.com/resources/wat-ie-about.html
