由 馋奶兔 提交于 2019-12-20 09:37:42
问题 I'm trying to get an aria-live region to work correctly with JAWS 11 and IE8. Using the code below, I can get JAWS to announce the new value when the button is clicked, but the behaviour is not what I would expect. JSFiddle of this example <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head></head> <body> <button onclick="document.getElementById('statusbar').innerHTML = parseInt(document.getElementById('statusbar').innerHTML) + 1">Update</button> <div id="statusbar" aria-live="polite">0</div> </body> </html> Using

问题 I am using angularjs and trying to make the website accessible. When a user doesn't enter or forget to enter into required field, jaws doesn't read out the error message. I have tried adding role="alert" to the div but it doesn't seem to like it. Any suggestions <div aria-type-label="{{'some:error'}}"> <span role="alert" class="error-message">Error</span> </div> 回答1: Jaws and the browser are looking for updated content to alert so I found that I had to add and remove the data completely in

Have JAWS ignore an html element

问题 I am currently attempting to make my application be more user friendly to those with difficulty seeing. As one would expect, I am using JAWS to test my application. Most of the issues I have run in were relatively easy to fix, except I am stumped on one. In my application, I have advertisements injected via an iframe and I want JAWS to ignore them, but I still want them to display (display:none is out of the question). Is there any way to have JAWS completely ignore an element and all of its

Jaws 16 not reading “alert” role in IE 11

由 走远了吗. 提交于 2019-12-07 11:54:59
问题 We are facing an issue with Jaws 16 and IE 11. We have some tooltips on the web page where we have assigned role as "alert" so that when JAWS reads it it will will first announce 'alert' and then reads the text. It was working fine for JAWS 15 with IE 11. Now Jaws has released version 16 and we have upgraded to that version due to that it is not announcing the 'alert' when tooltip comes in IE 11. This working perfectly fine with Fire Fox. Is there any issue with JAWS 16 with IE? 回答1: JAWS 16

How do you make the Loading icon accessible for screen-readers like JAWS?

由 守給你的承諾、 提交于 2019-12-06 07:39:08
问题 So the HTML code is this: <div style="visibility: hidden; display: none; right: 0px;"> <img id="processing" src="PT_LOADING.gif" alt="Processing... please wait" title=""> </div> Even though the ALT text is provided, upon changing the style to show the icon (visibility:visible), it is not read in the time gap when the loading icon appears. role=alert is not a feasible solution since this is not an alert 回答1: You need to add the following attributes to your DIV attributes role="alertdialog"

Are Keyboard shortcuts mandatory for 508 compliance

由 心不动则不痛 提交于 2019-12-05 16:09:12
问题 I researched a lot on this and seem to be getting conflicting answers on SO and all of the web. I understand that with Section 508 that compliance DOES NOT equal accessibility. Biggest thing is that the UI/UX designer is being told that keyboard shortcuts for the dropdown menu NEEDS to have keyboard shortcuts to be 508 compliant. I see Windows Forms applications having this, but for web development I do not think that is mandatory to be "compliant" My other question that was answered is here:
