Don't know the answer for sure, but if you display none or make it invisible AT would ignore it no? My logic is, display:none & invisible should precede ARIA elements. If a site speficically told the AT not to display a block of content, it shouldn't bother to annouce the role(s) within it to confuse user.
When doing RWD instead of mobile adaptation, that navigation goes to the bottom of the page for the consideration of Mobile version, my approach is to use absolute position to target the desktop version's navigation instead of making duplication. tee On May 24, 2012, at 1:12 PM, Tom Livingston wrote: > List, > > We have a project being worked on that is being done using RWD.
