Hello, I’m looking for a replacement for long description that could be navigated with a screen reader cursor but does not appear in the visible text like a figcaption does. It was suggested to use offscreen text immediately following the graphic (<img>) and then use an aria-details to point to the off screen text. I’m wondering if perhaps using aria-owns in this situation might make sense, as that would more closely tie the full description to the <img> tag. I will be trying this out over the next few days, but if there is an existing best practice that I should look at first? Thanks! Jonathan Cohn
