agendum 1. "Discussion on guideline levels - Please, Please -- Fill Out" taken up [from JAllan]
18:18:22 [kford]
agenda ?
18:19:24 [JAllan]
kf: question: will we be able to do the spreadsheet? or should we try something else?
18:19:37 [JAllan]
...why is this taking so long.
18:20:12 [JAllan]
gl: 115 rows,by 13 columns and comments....its a lot. SS is difficult
18:20:32 [JAllan]
...doesn't work well for me, just navigating.
18:21:36 [JAllan]
kf: what can we do and call it success.
18:22:06 [JAllan]
js: go down the implementation column and see what we know about browsers
18:23:10 [JAllan]
https://docs.google.com/a/tsbvi.edu/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AiiGLIaAlHSKdHNrcGNacUp2MHdXQW9sUmpBQ21Lenc&hl=en_US&pli=1#gid=0
18:23:41 [JAllan]
gl: implementation was also hard. created test files.
18:23:53 [JAllan]
topic: UA SC implementations
18:24:03 [Greg]
I'd find the columns more intuitive if they were specific disabilities rather than the current terms, which I find vague.
18:25:31 [JAllan]
js: when Kim and I talked the implementation was to be off the top of head. not so detailed
18:26:01 [JAllan]
kp: getting the numbers down and if there is a cluster of @@ then we can talk about those.
18:26:59 [JAllan]
... column heads were to be functional rather than disability specific.
18:28:46 [JAllan]
kf: start with Principle 2
18:29:42 [JAllan]
topic: 211 keyboard operation
18:30:02 [JAllan]
js: basically everyone does this.
18:30:44 [JAllan]
gl: there are bugs. what about mobile browsers (those designed specifically for touch screen)
18:31:17 [JAllan]
kp: ipad configuring swipes and multiple touches.
18:31:45 [JAllan]
js: need to get a rough count. easy to do or rough count. not discuss and get detailed.
18:31:54 [JAllan]
kp: generally implemented
18:33:04 [JAllan]
kf: are there any features that are not keyboard accesible
18:33:28 [JAllan]
every browser has some features that are not keyboard accessible.
18:34:06 [JAllan]
js: is this something that is easy and should be an A or very hard and be a AAA
18:35:01 [JAllan]
topic: 212 keyboard focus
18:35:29 [JAllan]
generally true
18:39:39 [JAllan]
topic: 213 viewport navigation
18:40:11 [JAllan]
generally true
18:40:38 [JAllan]
topic: 214 specify preferred keystrokes
18:42:34 [JAllan]
keyconfig addon for FF change binding
18:42:45 [JAllan]
perhaps greasemonky
18:44:46 [JAllan]
sh: why looking only at browsers. if a given function can be demonstrated in some other application, then it is possible and should be counted in implementaions.
18:45:43 [JAllan]
kf: MS word is a browser, and can do lots of things we are looking for.
18:46:22 [JAllan]
topic: no keyboard trap
18:47:53 [JAllan]
generally supported, FF has issues
18:48:10 [JAllan]
topic: 216 separate selection from activation
18:48:48 [JAllan]
FF does well (at one time) , IE does not, Jaws does
18:49:27 [JAllan]
topic: 217 follow text keyboard conventions
18:49:33 [JAllan]
5
18:50:22 [JAllan]
topic: 218 efficient keyboard access
18:53:41 [JAllan]
generally true, check by looking at the UI to see if underscore and shortcut keys
18:55:02 [JAllan]
could be rewritten to be 'indicate keyboard shortcuts'
18:55:13 [JAllan]
kf: leave it.
18:55:28 [JAllan]
topic: 219 override bindings
18:58:02 [JAllan]
gl: this is similar to 214. confusing.
18:58:27 [JAllan]
... perhaps change to "author supplied user interface controls" to clarify.
18:59:22 [JAllan]
214 is author supplied, 219 is UI controls

Chrome with ChromeVox add-on provides sequential navigation to selected types of structural or operable elements (e.g. next/previous h2).
19:28:26 [Greg]
Which SC does that fall into? Is that structural navigation or sequential navigation with filtering?

(Thanks to Mark for info on ChromeVox.)

Definition of Important Elements: This specification intentionally does not identify which "important elements" must be navigable because this will vary by specification. What constitutes "efficient navigation" may depend on a number of factors as well, including the "shape" of content (e.g. sequential navigation of long lists is not efficient) and desired granularity (e.g. among tables,...
19:31:38 [Greg]
...then among the cells of a given table). Refer to the Implementing document [Implementing UAAG 2.0] for information about identifying and navigating important elements. @@ Editors' Note: Update links
19:31:46 [JAllan]
mh: what is an element? html element, and combination of HTML div span, etc with a "role" (aria)
19:32:39 [JAllan]
kp: structural and operable elements
