Hi Everett,
I just saw that my email from yesterday didn't get through for some reason.
I'm usually available from early in the morning to 11am EST and on
Thursday and Friday until about noon.
Is it ok for you to schedule a meeting for 10am EST tomorrow? Another
option is to have it later today, I can join the channel from home.
James, Tona, please feel welcome to join in.
Regards,
Svetoslav

Hi all,
This is the definitive list of ARIA roles, states, and properties supported by
Safari:
http://developer.apple.com/safari/library/documentation/AppleApplications/Reference/SafariHTMLRef/Articles/AccessibilityRoles.html
It's a dismally meagre list. My guess is that we're going to have to come up
with some clever design solutions to work around the limitations of Safari and
VoiceOver for Engage. Maybe also invite James, Tona, or another designer to sit
in on your conversation in the channel?

Hi,
I would certainly like to join the conversation. I spent quite some time last
week looking into the problem of announcing or discovering the dynamic content
in web applications on iphone safari with voice over. That problem seems to be
a pretty big challenge since, as far as I'm aware, there's no way to force
voice over cursor to focus on arbitrary elements on the page. I also looked
over a number of web based application (including the ones from Google) and
they all have similar issues with voice over visibility of dynamic content on
the web page.
IRC would be great too to chat about it (today afternoon or the whole day
tomorrow work for me).
Regards,
Yura

Good morning,
I would like to help out with this, but I don't think that e-mail will be the
most effective medium. Can we arrange a time to meet on IRC? I have a pretty
flexible schedule, so any time you pick should work for me.
Thanks,
Everett Zufelt

Hi all,
Last week I took the oportunity to work on one of the accessibility issues with
code entry screen:
http://issues.fluidproject.org/browse/ENGAGE-392
Here is what I found:
Empty static text like <span></span> is not read by VoiceOver even given a
tabindex and a aria-label attribute. The case is that this element needs a relevant ARIA
role. However it seems that no suitable role is supported for static text. I found a table
of supported ARIA roles in Safari that is somewhat outdated (from March last year):
http://www.paciellogroup.com/blog/aria-tests/ARIA-MACRoleTests.html
I couldn't find a newer support table. Can someone help with this?
Also when the static text is updated it retains its previous value (blank, not
read by VoiceOver) as it is described here:
http://issues.fluidproject.org/browse/ENGAGE-427
This prevents the code from being read once it is entered.
I hope that somebody has some insight on how to correct these issues.
Regards,
Svetoslav
