I have been looking at how the HTML lang attribute is exposed in acc APIs in IA2/APK it is exposed by the 'language' text-attribute object in OSX AX it is exposed via the AXLanguage property So Firefox on windows/linux does expose Safari on OSX does (and presumably iOS) IE/Edge does not Chrome does not the implementation details for chrome are clear, but not for IE/Edge Does UIA expose the lang attribute? note: I have filed a bug on chrome/OSX as it doesn't expose lang currently https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=484228 It does not expose on windows either, but have learned that implementation of Ia2 text attributes in chrome is going to happen https://groups.google.com/a/chromium.org/forum/#!topic/chromium-accessibility/YTlaYKzaiXc -- Regards SteveF HTML 5.1 <http://www.w3.org/html/wg/drafts/html/master/>
