The following message from teh mozilla-accessibility list points to an interesting document looking at techniques for implementing accessibility standards (essentially guideline 7.1 stuff). It discusses the things that are equivalent but have different names etc between MSAA, Gnome and Java accessibility. I think it is valuable as a link form the techniques. In particular it deals with the question of what does it mean for a cross platform product to follow standards that don't exist in cross-platform form. (and it is short :) Cheers Charles From: Aaron Leventhal To: mozilla-accessibility@mozilla.org Subject: Cross-reference for accessibility APIs Resent-Date: Wed, 31 Jan 2001 01:06:44 -0800 (PST) Resent-From: mozilla-accessibility@mozilla.org Hello, I've begun the process of posting a cross reference on-line describing the difference between the way MSAA & Java Accessibility define characteristics like role and state of an object. There's also a short intro. Perhaps this document will evolve to more fully describe what we're doing with MSAA, so we can use it to garner feedback. http://access-mozilla.sourceforge.net/article.php?sid=11&mode=thread&order=0 Aaron
