Depends on AT support (whether or not a screenreader would actually be able to 
make sense of this construct and expose "Search" as explicit label for the 
search box when focussed on). Personally, I wouldn't have too many problems 
with this if support was consistent.

Surely


   
   Search


would therefore keep everybody happy?

(Or does it matter if focus is switched to the text field as the form  
is submitted - sounds like the kind of odd case that A Certain  
Browser might get unreasonably petulant about...)

I was specifically talking about the type of form Bojana mentions in the thread

I'm not making assumptions. I'm saying that, for sighted users, having a text 
input box with no visible label and a button that says "Search" immediately 
next to it is labelling enough.

You seem to be getting a tad confused here. Am I talking about abandoning web 
standards? No.
Is it worth looking at other websites for common design patterns that users are 
already familiar with? Yes.

These aren't mutually exclusive.

I'm saying that having a label element that is moved off-left via CSS - keeping 
it in the markup, but not visible - is an acceptable solution in this case, and 
doing so would not pose accessibility problems to other user groups (e.g. 
sighted users with motor impairments, provided the text input offers a large 
enough clickable area in itself).

Sorry, I thought we were discussing labels for form input boxes (not just
one-box input search forms).

However, generally speaking, making assumptions about accessibility based
on the visual positioning of elements "in a logical common place used by
most other sites" is not a good idea.

Better to design to Web standards rather the standard of other Websites.

Re: [WSG] Accessible Forms - empty labels (??)

2007-04-12 Thread Jixor - Stephen I
You could label the field as "search" and the button as "go" perhaps. 
I'm guessing you don't want to label the search field because the submit 
would also be labeled search?

Re: [WSG] Accessible Forms - empty labels (??)

2007-04-12 Thread Stuart Foulstone
Hi,

Yes, quite often accessibility features for people with disabilities
increase accessibility for everyone and, hence, "usability".

The clickability of label/field makes forms more accessible for people
with certain motor problems that have difficulty pointing with a mouse by
increasing the "target area" (particularly useful for checkboxes and radio
buttons).

Re: [WSG] best standard / format for imbeded mp3 player in browser

2007-04-12 Thread Benedict Wyss

I like some of the flash players out there.

I did a little searching and found an option using flash but parseing a url
to it with 1 line of code to put in the page.

I set a demo here http://wysstech.com/audio/test.htm.

Any opinions on this method

Yes, IMHO the best thing to do is to provide both a direct link to the
file and a flash player that is customized to your site's design.

Hi Ben

file.mp3 [50 Kb] works well and allows
people to play the file in the player of their choice (maybe they even have
their browser set up to do this if they want). They can also download it for
later playing.

If you want to play it inside a browser then I'm sure there is a flash
component that will play mp3's with play and pause buttons?
