mk: not sure of state

<LJWatson> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-pfwg/2014Nov/0238.html

lw: we agreed don't need aria-currentfor - so just down to aria-current

cs: do simple case (aria-current) now ... (not aria-currentfor)

bg: can add a use case - test scores with criteria

lw: discussed text about aria-selected vs aria-current

rs: tab panels use aria-selected, should that change

mk: : at one time we were going to add warning about aria-selected vs aria-current

lw: need to keep the attribute simple

mk: wonders about use case bg gave
... afraid of ambiguity that a author may believe is clear, but won't be clear to the user

<jongund> Thats what I said

??

<richardschwerdtfeger> RS: What if we had an attribute called aria-currenttext? Which provides informative help information regarding the aria-current attribute to provide context

jg: asked about use -

lw: wants to keep it simple

<clown> http://idrc.ocad.ca/index.php/research-and-development/ongoing-projects

<bgaraventa1979> +q

mk: aria is about semantics - answers jg question - list with item in list styled - to show the current member of the set

bg: value of attribute - can be programmatically assigned

<jamesn> another use case for aria-current: http://www.oracle.com/webfolder/ux/middleware/richclient/index.html?/webfolder/ux/middleware/richclient/guidelines5/train.html

<richardschwerdtfeger> RS: This is good for breadcrumbs

mk & bg discuss use -

cs: relays why something may be styled

PROPOSAL: Do we not need aria-currentfor

<richardschwerdtfeger> not now

+1

<LJWatson> +1

<joanie> +1

<jamesn> +1

<mattking> +1

<clown> +1 for now

<bgaraventa1979> agree for 'not now'

RESOLUTION: don't need aria-currentfor at this time

PROPOSAL: Do we need aria-currenttext to explain aria-current?

<mattking> it really depends on how global the aria-current attribute is.

<mattking> If aria-current is narrow in scope, the no.

<mattking> if aria-current is global in scope, then definitely yes

LW: aria-current would take a string instead of a boolean

mk: challenges for using a string for aria-current
... if aria-current needs to be in a navigation area, no need for a string, if it can be used anywhere then may need a string

cs: would like to see it be able to be used in a decision tree etc

<jongund> +q

cs: wants to see it be able to used in a flow chart -

<LJWatson> -1 on aria-currenttext

<joanie> -1 on aria-currenttext

<richardschwerdtfeger> -1 on aria-currenttext

<clown> -1 on aria-currenttext

-1

<mattking> -1

<richardschwerdtfeger> CS: -1 on aria-currenttext

<clown> http://w3c.github.io/aria/aria/aria.html#aria-invalid

PROPOSAL: aria-current takes a string token (enum), which represents the purpose - like aria-invalid?

bg: would like to include true in the token list

<LJWatson> +1

<richardschwerdtfeger> +1

+1

<clown> +1 (if the token list includes "true" and "false", where "false" is the default)

<clown> http://w3c.github.io/aria/aria/aria.html#valuetype_token

<mattking> suggested values could be "page", "step", , etc.

<mattking> need list of use cases for token development

RESOLUTION: aria-current can take a token, where two of the allowed values are true and false

smokin'

rs: what token values do we want

all discussion of tokens:

token - page,

token, step

token - location (you are here)

<clown> token - true

rs: is this a good start we can add to?

<clown> token - false (default)

token -false

mk: AT vendors should take liberties with how tokens are expressed

PROPOSAL: Accept above list of token values?

<LJWatson> +1

<clown> +1

<richardschwerdtfeger> +1

<mattking> +1

<joanie> +1

+1

mk: should date/time be included in tokens now?

token - date

token time

no jokes on token time?

<LJWatson> +1

<clown> +1

+1

<richardschwerdtfeger> RS: values are: true, false, date, time, step, page, location

<joanie> +1

PROPOSAL: Do we agree aria-current is global?
