proposed: providing an event in a form that AT expects for the platform whenever a change of structure... For event, you may consider using the word process as an alternative. Diane ________________________________ From: w3c-wai-gl-request@w3.org on behalf of Michael Cooper Sent: Wed 10/26/2005 12:50 PM To: WAI GL (E-mail) Subject: Techniques for GL 4.2 L1 SC6 At the Face to Face last week we decided to go to the list about techniques for Guideline 4.2 Level 1 Success Criterion 6 [1]: Changes to content, structure, selection, focus, attributes, values, state, and relationships within the content can be programmatically determined. What we have for techniques is the following: * Providing an event whenever a change to structure, selection, focus, attributes, values, state, or relationships occur. als: Is "event" a platform-independent term? * Pointing to external documentation that explains/shows Redundant with using accessibility conventions? No - if use accessibility features, get for free. If not, need to do the things in L1 SC6 issues: needs cleanup, needs to include info about the DOM, not ready for public release proposed: using accessibility API of a programming language that provides this functionality proposed: providing an event in a form that AT expects for the platform whenever a change of structure... Please suggest techniques or ways to resolve the issues with the existing techniques.
