Re: [WSG] JavaScript and Accessibility

Server side validation is of course a must... however, if the visually impaired visitor has _javascript_ turned on and these error elements are created, they won't exactly get to the server side validation now, will they? ARIA looks good, looking forward to it getting out of draft status. Thanks, Anthony. james.duc...@gmail.com wrote: Hmm, I made a typo. Coffee time.

Agreed, and any decent validation is going to be done server-side validation anyway, so you're going to have to (or at least you should) implement the server-side responses in any case. - James -- James Ducker Web Developer http://www.studioj.net.au ******************************************************************* List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: memberh...@webstandardsgroup.org *******************************************************************
