Title
WAI-ARIA live regions and HTML5
Abstract
The W3C Web Accessibility Initiative - Accessible Rich Internet Applications (WAI-ARIA) and HTML5 are exciting and relatively new specifications with many new semantics that together help describe the complex desktop like behavior found in many Web applications. One aspect of ARIA, Live Regions, define markup that an Assistive Technology can use to understand how to treat a Document Object Model (DOM) update. Past work has been done showing live regions effectively expose DOM updates. However, little testing has been done on the combination of HTML5 elements with live region attributes. Test cases as well as the results of the test cases and vendor support are discussed in this paper.
