Re: UAAG2: Ideas for 10.1

REVISED AFTER JAN 31 CALL

Please Note:
1. We haven't talked about how we are going to call out what the base 
browser has to do versus the assistive technologies...what do people 
think of something like the "BASE_UA" label shown here for this?


X.Y Provide access to relationship information

Level A

(BASE_UA) 1. Make explicitly-defined relationships in the content (e.g., 
labeledby, describedby, which table header?, etc.) available 
programmatically.
2. Allow the user to access information from explicitly-defined 
relationships in the content (e.g., label, description, table header, etc.).
3. For content in a hierarchy (e.g., tree node, nested frame), allow the 
user to view the path of nodes leading from the root to the content.

Level AA

N/A

Level AAA

N/A


Thoughts?

Cheers,
Jan
