Hi, just passing this along as requested. -----Original Message----- From: Jonathan Avila Sent: Thursday, April 09, 2015 6:20 PM To: Bryan Garaventa; SSB Developer Subject: RE: [ARIA] FYI: aria-placeholder added to spec I'm actually a little concerned about this as it helps to promote the complementary use of the visible placeholder which is only visible in some browsers when you are not focused in a field. The information displayed may not be the label but it is instructions required to correctly complete the field and as such as also covered under SC 3.3.2. So these instructions won't be available to people with cognitive disabilities or people with low vision. Bryan, can you please share my concern with the group?
