Although this is not directly related to the topic, I thought it may be useful to understand what adding a role to an element does. The link below is to a set of tests i conducted a while ago: it details what AT announce when they encounter an element with a given role. Note the adding a role value provides the user with the widget type and a hint on what keys to use to operate it. (note the hint is typically only provided when a user has their verbosity settings set to high). http://www.paciellogroup.com/blog/aria-tests/user-input-widgets.html hope this is useful. regards Stevef
