19:15:49 [dpoehlman]
jg we need over all on the mozilla keyboard model. There are some tings tat should be tidied up such as te shoulds to be more closely alliigned to our guidelines.
19:16:41 [dpoehlman]
jg working with mozilla group on minimal navigation set for html content.
19:17:15 [dpoehlman]
aaron: does this cover only caret browsing mode?
19:18:05 [dpoehlman]
Jg,: it covers focusable elements such as pre id and next id but they don't say what the sequence is or what the elements that are effected by these types of things.
19:19:32 [dpoehlman]
jg: we want to know exactly what the focusable elements are. We also want to talk about ow conditional content is handled.
19:20:46 [dpoehlman]
aaron: how do you make someting focusable but now in tab order?
19:21:30 [dpoehlman]
jg: next and previous id will replace tab index for this. What is consdered a focusable elements and what happens to elements that are considered not focusable.
19:22:00 [dpoehlman]
aaron: I don't want everyting in the tab order but I want them to be focusable.
19:22:35 [dpoehlman]
aaron: there are a lot of wigits that should be in the tab order once so it's important to be able to distinguis between focusable and in tab order.
19:22:59 [dpoehlman]
aaron, table cells is one example
19:24:26 [dpoehlman]
jg: we'd like to see the document have more guidance for a keyboard model for accessing things in xhtml 2.0.
19:25:31 [dpoehlman]
jg cells will have event handlers?
19:26:54 [dpoehlman]
aaron: yes, an example is a tree view. If you are mimicking the desktop environment, the author might use left and rigt arrow. If you are doing mail, you might just want to show conversations initially and not all te mesages. So, the idea might be to put conversations in the tab order and leave individual mail messages out.
