The following roles complementary, contentinfo, main, navigation, search are redundant with native HTML features and a native element corresponding to banner could easily be introduced. Is there a good reason why e.g. <div role=contentinfo> is promoted instead of the HTML-native <footer> element? Exposing either to AT should require about the same amount of UA programming work. For reference, the correspondence is as follows: complementary: <aside> contentinfo: <footer> main: <article> navigation: <nav> search: the <form> element associated with <input type=search> -- Henri Sivonen hsivonen@iki.fi http://hsivonen.iki.fi/
