A different layer. 17:20:18 ...need a scheme, not random shortcuts. 17:21:05 GL: lots equate direct navigation with 'accesskey', direct navigation should be more general. 17:21:34 KP: How would you change this? 17:21:59 My suggestion is summarized: I still lean towards replacing this proposed section with the recommendation that the UA provide an option to assign direct keyboard commands to all enabled elements that lack them. The display of those direct keyboard command would already be covered by 4.1.5 (Discovery of Keyboard Commands). 17:22:27 http://www.w3.org/2002/09/wbs/36791/20090722/results#xq2 17:23:20 GL: specific example of firefox plugin to number links 17:24:23 KF: not sure if 4.1 or 4.7 provides functionality that KP proposes 17:24:51 ...4.7 should be about new navigation concepts and direct selection of elements 17:25:13 KP: makes sense. it is an extension of direct navigation 17:25:43 KF: where we put it is only part. need to review proposals. 17:26:18 JR: 4.1 is about full keyboard access. 17:26:33 ...4.15 discovery of keyboard commands. 17:27:15 ...main point of KP proposal is author has not provide direct access 17:27:35 ...UA imposes needed access for efficiency 17:29:27 KF: need direct selection 17:30:24 Show/hide direct keyboard commands are equivalent to show/hide alt text, etc. 17:30:42 KP: user needs ability change show/hide link number indicators 17:31:17 GL: similar to show/hide alternative content. could we have something general that covers both 17:31:44 ...and/or visual indicator of what is a link 17:32:05 KP: should be more global not a per instance 17:32:48 q+ 17:33:02 KP: UA puts numbers by links, but overwrite contents, some users may need bigger number or high contrast or translucent 17:33:29 How about something like "the user should be able to easily toggle options that change the rendering of the page." 17:33:37 ...and be able to quickly turn them on/off 17:34:29 JR: configurability must be there. perhaps in techniques say how to configure 17:34:48 KF: dynamic updating? 17:35:36 Ability to halt updating of display of those links, is that the same as stopping update of the page altogether? 17:35:45 KP: dynamic updating of content poses problems. should be a way to stop or change timing. 17:35:49 ack Jan 17:36:08 q+ 17:36:16 KF: don't hear disagreement on needs for these functions 17:36:42 ...level of detail on some of these is too specific (configurability) 17:37:05 ...configurability should be clear across all features 17:38:03 KF: process...other items...continue to hash this, or take a second path. 17:38:25 KP: where should these go. arguments are good for 4.1 or 4.7 17:38:42 q+ 17:38:46 ...I need to know what is already covered. and what should be move to techniques 17:39:05 Suggest a new SC equivalent "the user should be able to easily toggle options that change the layout of the page." 17:39:39 GL: toggle link numbers, alt text, etc. 17:39:55 ...hopefully would cover KP suggestions 17:40:04 KP: where does that go? 17:40:22 q+ to say "a requirement for UAs to provide keyboard commands for all active elements even when no ceyboard command provided by author" 17:40:35 GL: don't know. first see if approach is right, then put it somewhere 17:40:52 ack Greg 17:40:58 GL: is same thing true for updating page items 4.x.5 17:41:12 I'd recommend the same approach to Kim's proposed 4.x.5, something about generally toggling the updating of the page. 17:41:39 KF: Perhaps Guideline 3 Perceivable. could we have GL item here 17:41:53 KP: works for me 17:42:12 GL: expand 3.1 beyond 'alt' 17:42:48 KF: not expand 3.1. the content in 4.x.5 is not author content, it is UA content. 17:43:05 ack KFord 17:43:16 ...conceptually they are different and should be separated 17:43:51 KF: MH is correct. This is a new concept. 4.1.7 is a good new home. 17:45:01 JR: GL point of easy toggling is good. UA provide keyboard commands for all actvie elements not just author supplied keybinding. 17:45:21 ack Jan 17:45:21 Jan, you wanted to say "a requirement for UAs to provide keyboard commands for all active elements even when no ceyboard command provided by author" 17:45:22 ...new concept.
