Re: [WSG] Accessible Slideshow
Unfortunately, I didn’t find that slideshow yet. The YUI2 carousel with ARIA plugin works nicely. You can set it to auto play, it’s not the same as a slide show. http://developer.yahoo.com/yui/examples/carousel/carousel-ariaplugin.html Ted On 12/6/11 11:13 AM, "David Laakso" wrote: On 12/6/11 12:44 PM, Ted Drake wrote: Re: [WSG] Accessible Slideshow These are just some of the features I would look for in an accessible slideshow. -- Ted Drake Does such a slideshow exist; and, if so, can you please point to one that uses those features... and, includes any other features that are important to an accessible slideshow? ~d *** List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: memberh...@webstandardsgroup.org ***

Re: [WSG] Accessible Slideshow
Before looking for an accessible slide show, it would help to think about what would make a slideshow accessible. 1. Do the images have alternate text. If the slideshow is adding images to the DOM, make sure the alt attribute is being used. 2. If the images are preloaded in a list, are they truly hidden? Most slideshows use positioning instead of display:none or visibility:hidden to hide images. This allows for smoother animations. If the slideshow is using position to hide images, make sure it is using aria-hidden=”true” and aria-hidden=”false” on the appropriate images. 3. Does the slideshow offer a hover behavior that is also keyboard accessible? This is especially true when an image’s caption is displayed on :hover. Make sure this works with :active and :focus as well. 4. Are there buttons to move the slideshow back and forth? Do they use links like ? Add role=”button” to links that behave like buttons. 5. if the slideshow has a main stage that has images loaded into it, are they being announced? If the slideshow is the key focus of the page, set focus to the image when it is loaded. If it is a sub module on a page, you could use aria-live=”polite” to let the user know the slideshow has changed. 6. Are there alternate buttons if it is on a mobile device and uses a custom swipe gesture? These are just some of the features I would look for in an accessible slideshow. -- Ted Drake Yahoo!
