action-643 http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-wai-ua/2012JanMar/0004.html

https://www.w3.org/2002/09/wbs/36791/20120105/
2.11.7

this is the current wording in the draft.

jr: need dfn for "Timebase", "continuous scale, "relative time units"

<scribe> ACTION: markH to write definitions for "Timebase",
"continuous scale, "relative time units" related to 2.11.7 [recorded
in http://www.w3.org/2012/01/05-ua-minutes.html#action02]

<trackbot> Sorry, couldn't find user - markH

<scribe> ACTION: mark to write definitions for "Timebase", "continuous
scale, "relative time units" related to 2.11.7 [recorded in

<trackbot> Created ACTION-699 - Write definitions for "Timebase",
"continuous scale, "relative time units" related to 2.11.7 [on Markku
Hakkinen - due 2012-01-12].

discussion of time position, and continuous time scale.

mh: user is limited by granularity of the interface on the continuous
time scale.

jr: we need to define our scale better. saying that it depends on the
UI (frame, tenth of second, 10 seconds, etc.) where is the
accessibility criteria?

gl: granularity should be "reasonable"

jr: arbitrary units could be gotten from WCAG20 2.2.1

<Jan> http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG/#time-limits

jr: and 2.2.2
... interesting that WCAG has time of 5 seconds, UAAG has timing of 3 seconds

mh: caption on screen length...as long as speech lasts or until next
instance of speech

gl: base it on type of media, high speed camera work.

mh: stick with continuous time scale, but may depend on the media.

setting of time scale 1-10, or 1-100, or 1-500. youtube does 10%
increments from the keyboard

kp: speech users need more granularity.

mh: as fine a granularity as supported by the technology

close for now, more discussion when mark comes back with definitions.
UAWG SCs needing attention: 2.1.6 and 3.4.2
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-wai-ua/2012JanMar/0003.html
2.11.x review time based media Action-643

2.11.x Review Time-Based Media

The user can request that a predefined interval of recently played
audio, video, or animation be repeated. (Level AA)

Intent:

Users with sensory, cognitive or attentional impairments may find it
difficult to understand or follow time-based media, especially if
distracted by environmental visual or auditory events. This success
criteria allows users to review recently played content that may have
been missed or not fully understood by providing a single action that
resets the playback position by a predefined...

scribe: interval and resumes playback.

jr and gl: what is predefined?

<Greg> Clarify whether interval can be defined by developer, user, or either OK.

mh: to review Daisy spec. to see if timing is configurable. or see
clarity of 'configurable'

gl: and others...this is a common feature in many players.

jr: granularity. Media accessibility requirements from PF Media
Accessibility User Requirements

http://www.w3.org/TR/media-accessibility-reqs

could reference the above for granularity

gl: concerned about failing players for not meeting UAAG defined interval.

kp: need robust intent to explain some of the use cases

<Jan> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-wai-ua/2012JanMar/0003.html
2.1.6 and 3.4.2

jr: combined these to make 1 SC removing 3.4.2

<Jan> http://www.w3.org/WAI/UA/2011/ED-IMPLEMENTING-UAAG20-20111227/#sc-342

<Jan> http://www.w3.org/WAI/UA/2011/ED-IMPLEMENTING-UAAG20-20111227/#sc-241

<Jan> oops...

<Jan> http://www.w3.org/WAI/UA/2011/ED-IMPLEMENTING-UAAG20-20111227/#sc-214

gl: need to exempt have the status bar change as a link gets focus.
... transient presentation of information needs to be considered

<Jan> 2.1.6 Separate Selection from Activation (former 2.1.4): The
user can specify that selection is separate from activation (e.g.
navigating through a set of radio buttons without changing which is
the active/selected option). (Level A)

<Jan> 3.4.2 Avoid Side Effects of Navigation [former 1.9.1, before
that 3.11.11, changed]: The user can move the keyboard focus without
causing the user agent to take any further action, other than the
presentation of information (e.g. scrolling or pop-ups that do not
change the focus or selection). (Level A)

jr: is combining ok

<Greg> I agree it's possible in concept to combine those two, as
changing focus could be considered a side effect of navigation.

ja, gl, mh, kp all ok with combining

<Jan> ACTION: JR to Continue to work on the combined 2.1.6 Navigation
Without Side Effects to make it clear that some transient side effects
are ok [recorded in
http://www.w3.org/2012/01/05-ua-minutes.html#action04]

<trackbot> Created ACTION-700 - Continue to work on the combined 2.1.6
Navigation Without Side Effects to make it clear that some transient
side effects are ok [on Jan Richards - due 2012-01-12].

<Jan> http://www.w3.org/WAI/UA/2011/ED-UAAG20-20111227/#sc-531

<jeanne> http://www.w3.org/WAI/UA/work/wiki/Main_Page

http://www.w3.org/WAI/UA/work/wiki/User_Agent_issues_effecting_A11y

<Greg> Jan suggests that 5.3.1 (document accessibility features) would
cover making sure accesskey works correctly.

jr: add a more specific list to 5.3.1 call out bugs that affect accessibility

<Greg> Greg notes that's only true of the HTML spec is specific enough
about behavior.

<Greg> HTML4 spec *does* require the focus to be moved when the user
presses an accesskey ("Pressing an access key assigned to an element
gives focus to the element. The action that occurs when an element
receives focus depends on the element.") So the behaviors of
Webkit-based browsers (e.g. Chrome and Safari) fail to implement it as
spec'd.

tab and enter should reset the dom pointer

discussion basic functionality in browsers that are broken...in page
link, anchors for form control @id

jr: inpage links should move keyboard focus and the subsequent tabs
should take the user to the next available link after the named anchor
