      Sufficient Technique for SC 1.3.1 : Using ARIA landmarks to
      identify regions of a page

<jnurthen> some alt text results -
http://jnurthen.users.sonic.net/alttext.html

<MoeKraft> When defining regions of a web page, authors are advised to
consider using standard document landmark roles. If the definitions of
these regions are inadequate, authors can use the region role and
provide the appropriate accessible name.

<MoeKraft> region (role) # A large perceivable section of a web page or
document, that the author feels is important enough to be included in a
page summary or table of contents, for example, an area of the page
containing live sporting event statistics.

-> http://www.w3.org/WAI/PF/aria/rdf_model.png ARIA taxonomy

<MoeKraft> 5.3.4. Landmark Roles # The following roles are regions of
the page intended as navigational landmarks. All of these roles inherit
from the landmark base type and, with the exception of application, all
are imported from the Role Attribute [ROLE]. The roles are included here
in order to make them clearly part of the WAI-ARIA Role taxonomy.
application banner complementary contentinfo form main navigation search

<David> typo "ta help"

<MoeKraft> Here's the guidance we provide in our checklist, "An
application landmark should only apply to an entire region of the page
that has a collection of UI components that form an application for
which all keyboard handling is solely handled by the application. Since
Assistive Technologies recognize widgets and pass keyboard control to
them, there is seldom a need to use role="application"."

Leave open to incorporate comments


      Sufficient Technique for SC 1.3.1 : Headings using role=heading

<MoeKraft> https://github.com/davidtodd/landmarks

use cases for role=heading

- retrofitting a site where can´t change DOM element hierarchy because
of script effects etc. but can make accessible with role=heading

- headings go down to a level 7 which can´t be represented in HTML but
can with role=heading aria-level=7
