Guideline 2.4 |
|
|
|
|
2.4.1 |
- 1563 - misleading examples for definition of navigational features
- 1646 - SC is redundant
|
No?
No general techniques. Draft versions of 4 of the 5 HTML techniques should be reviewed.
- Using headings
- Grouping links
- Using the link element and navigation tools
- Skipping link groups
|
No |
-
Using technology-specific techniques to programmatically expose common navigational features.
-
Using technology-specific techniques to programmatically expose common navigational features by using techniques from success criterion 1.3.1.
- Using "a" for links.
|
2.4.2 |
- 1647 - no requirement for a way to find info in delivery unit
- 1708 - change SC to use "without invalidating the activity"
- 1741 - what if one method is sufficient?
- 1825 - add "page" to SC, (see also 1770 )
|
3 draft techniques available, 3 missing.

|
No. |
|
2.4.3 |
- 1214 - make level 1 to harmonize with Section 508
- 1830 - remove technique to structure content so main content comes first
- 1831 - require skip links to be visible
|
No. At least one of the techniques for skipping blocks of repeated material is needed.
It looks like there are drafts of techniques from a previous version that could be useful here.

|
|
2.4.5 |
- 1649 - define programmatic reference
- 1812 - how closely is the association?

Yes? Two of the general techniques are "Using technology-specific techniques, ...". Do we have a "standard" explanation of such techniques? We are still missing the first general technique.

|
No.

|
No.
Draft HTML techniques

|
No |
