aloha, alexander!
since the gecko implementation is based on the syntax of the ARIA
documents, and the ARIA documents use a terminal "e":
http://www.w3.org/TR/aria-state/#activedescendent
activedesencdent with a terminal e is correct -- marco and/or aaron --
is anyone tasked with taking the gecko implementation and checking it
for consistency with the syntax used in the ARIA specifications? (for
example, labeledby versus labelledby -- a common error)
when in doubt implementing use the syntax in the specification -- that's
what it's there for -- to define the standard to be implemented
gregory.
