Shadi, I agree with Phil landmarks should be considered prime time. We use them on the new disability web site at Illinois: http://www.disability.illinois.edu/ The OpenAjax Alliance is building rules to support use of landmarks: http://www.openajax.org/member/wiki/WCAG_2.0_Principle_2_Operable_Rules#Requirement_2.4.1_Bypass_Blocks http://www.openajax.org/member/wiki/WCAG_2.0_Principle_2_Operable_Rules#Requirement_2.4.5_Multiple_Ways http://www.openajax.org/member/wiki/WCAG_2.0_Principle_2_Operable_Rules#Requirement_2.4.6_Headings_and_Labels Jon From: Phill Jenkins [mailto:pjenkins@us.ibm.com] Sent: Wednesday, November 16, 2011 8:20 AM To: Shadi Abou-Zahra Cc: Gunderson, Jon R; WAI Interest Group Subject: Re: Reminder: Call for Review: Before and After Demonstration (BAD) Now is the perfect time to implement ARIA landmarks. They are supported by Firefox and IE and screen readers. We shouldn't have to wait for a final spec, at least not for items that have no issues .
