RE: About image sliders

Hi Ajay,

Yes, please provide some more details.

I will add that you can follow the WAI-ARIA authoring practices for the Slider widget here: http://www.w3.org/WAI/PF/aria-practices/#slider. It provides the necessary ARIA roles, states, and properties to add as well as the keyboard event listeners and their expected behaviors.

Hi

It depends how you have coded the slider. 

Are you using a third party API or your own code. Can you provide some code example?
