Re: High contrast modes

Hi Patrick

Surely there are common CSS properties that AT will recognise as having a specific purpose though? For example, forcing outline:none; seems to actively prohibit AT providing a focus indicator should users wish to control the colours of the page?

Even just hiding a selected radio button and using background colours to show the state of the control limits users from controlling the colours of the page. The AT knows how to display a radio button, but how can it be expected to know when some background-colors are important, and others aren't?

I get that an author is not responsible for users modifying the page, but at the same time, if information is conveyed by background-colors alone, that does stop users being able to control the background colours to their needs?

Thanks

Sarah
