RE: A question about immediate feedback

If time limit was normatively defined, I might be inclined to agree, but it
isn't so as I said earlier I can see no embargo on items being removed from
view automatically once their content has been conveyed . 

 

and page load to change content is hopefully a bit of a legacy issue, isn't
it?

I agree about it being a clear violation of 2.2.1 if the messages
automatically disappear after a period of time except in the circumstances
you describe or if a page reload occurs.

Adam Cooper said:  "It should be onscreen for as long as you believe it is
necessary for everybody to consume its content and then disappear."

 

Adam, I would have thought that automatically disappearing toast
notifications are a violation of 2.2.1 Timing Adjustable. Unless they
disappear when they are no longer valid or one of the other mechanisms (turn
off, adjust, extend) are implemented.

 

Interested to hear your view on this.
