Using the code shown below as the basis for a scratch test, Jaws in FF and IE reports the headings without defined roles as "heading level 2". NVDA in both FF and IE reports those headings as "heading". <body> <h1>Test page</h1> <div role="heading">This</div> <section> <div role="heading">That</div> </section> </body> Léonie. -- Léonie Watson - Senior accessibility engineer @LeonieWatson @PacielloGroup PacielloGroup.com
