Re: Possible wording for 1.3.4?

I like that version Alex. A few tweaks in line with John’s:

In content implemented using technologies with support for autofilling form inputs and an equivalent input field as any of the HTML 5.2 Autofill field names<https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2FTR%2Fhtml52%2Fsec-forms.html%23autofill-field&data=02%7C01%7Cakirkpat%40adobe.com%7Cca969dfd8a4a4e21f6e408d559ede8cc%7Cfa7b1b5a7b34438794aed2c178decee1%7C0%7C0%7C636513800714094670&sdata=XRbdqxqP8ZK6sblYsmHoYOwbcLFZuiEs6zZ07udO%2Br4%3D&reserved=0> is used, the meaning of the equivalent input fields can be programmatically determined.

Changed:
In content implemented using technologies with support for autofilling form inputs, for each input field that has a purpose that maps to any of the HTML 5.2 Autofill field names<https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2FTR%2Fhtml52%2Fsec-forms.html%23autofill-field&data=02%7C01%7Cakirkpat%40adobe.com%7Cca969dfd8a4a4e21f6e408d559ede8cc%7Cfa7b1b5a7b34438794aed2c178decee1%7C0%7C0%7C636513800714094670&sdata=XRbdqxqP8ZK6sblYsmHoYOwbcLFZuiEs6zZ07udO%2Br4%3D&reserved=0> the meaning of the input field can be programmatically determined.

Or, to step away from “autofill” a bit:
In content implemented using technologies with support for identifying the expected meaning for form input data, for each input field that has a purpose that maps to any of the HTML 5.2 Autofill field names<https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2FTR%2Fhtml52%2Fsec-forms.html%23autofill-field&data=02%7C01%7Cakirkpat%40adobe.com%7Cca969dfd8a4a4e21f6e408d559ede8cc%7Cfa7b1b5a7b34438794aed2c178decee1%7C0%7C0%7C636513800714094670&sdata=XRbdqxqP8ZK6sblYsmHoYOwbcLFZuiEs6zZ07udO%2Br4%3D&reserved=0> the meaning of the input field can be programmatically determined.

How about something like this?

If a company creates a tool that allows people to create web content they may be able to conform when the software is tested but that is a different date then for the person who builds content with it.

The suggestions are very much like 1.3.5:
In content implemented using markup languages, the purpose of User Interface Components<https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Frawgit.com%2Fw3c%2Fwcag21%2Fmaster%2Fguidelines%2Findex.html%23dfn-user-interface-components&data=02%7C01%7Cakirkpat%40adobe.com%7Cca969dfd8a4a4e21f6e408d559ede8cc%7Cfa7b1b5a7b34438794aed2c178decee1%7C0%7C0%7C636513800714094670&sdata=aShpbJxNlVln6eAEUJg6nk8lPkPB%2BjdXstjbGKIILp4%3D&reserved=0>, icons, and regions<https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Frawgit.com%2Fw3c%2Fwcag21%2Fmaster%2Fguidelines%2Findex.html%23dfn-regions&data=02%7C01%7Cakirkpat%40adobe.com%7Cca969dfd8a4a4e21f6e408d559ede8cc%7Cfa7b1b5a7b34438794aed2c178decee1%7C0%7C0%7C636513800714094670&sdata=k1pms5bzqxOapQWfkpzlGPeYKyudC%2BaHJjvKCQaBxRI%3D&reserved=0> can be programmatically determined.

in 1.3.4 we have tried to define a smaller, more testable set.

AWK:
> If I use HTML in a “living standard” way today and include all of the appropriate meanings/purposes that are defined, but then HTML adds meanings, how will I be able to handle my conformance? I haven’t changed the site, but the list changes. We can’t leave that open-ended.

As per Michael’s email on the other thread: Conformance is at a particular date, so it’s the standard at the time.

This was one of the reasons that the W3C has tried to ‘version’ HTML though, so your conformance could also reference a specific version, e.g:
https://www.w3.org/TR/html52/sec-forms.html#autofill-field<https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2FTR%2Fhtml52%2Fsec-forms.html%23autofill-field&data=02%7C01%7Cakirkpat%40adobe.com%7C1a91d1adbbec4a5f136108d559e88c25%7Cfa7b1b5a7b34438794aed2c178decee1%7C0%7C0%7C636513777735429494&sdata=KaptVuMMuXLmJ4IPdDuZTIRdkM9A6P0PPEjys0vUmiA%3D&reserved=0>
