The range technique seemed too all encompassing, but do agree that if have one attribute then one techqnique could cover a number of success criteria 16:17:05 +??P4 16:17:26 adam: the headers technqiue which have discussed often in WCAG. When we do have a consensus that there is one implementation. With headers there is a difference between the implementation. 16:17:28 zakim, P4 is Loretta 16:17:28 sorry, Loretta, I do not recognize a party named 'P4' 16:17:41 JN: I am the opposite 16:19:03 im gone for 4-5 minutes, sorry 16:19:30 marc: there are different situations to use it, but the technqiue is always the same, so maybe one simplified technique to apply to different success criteria. 16:19:41 marc: purpose is to describe whatever that element is 16:19:56 loretta: somewhat case by case 16:20:24 marc: if look at the label one in particualt 16:20:54 james: one major difference i am aware of is in support of label when labelling different things 16:21:03 back 16:21:04 -??P4 16:21:20 james: as far as I know some AT will or wont support using aria-label on certain elementsw 16:21:27 why is skype being so flaky! 16:23:10 james: concerned about muddying the waters by including too much in a single techqnique where there may be things like best practices, AT support etc that differ when using for different elements 16:23:22 +[IPcaller.a] 16:23:53 Joshue108 has joined #html-techs-tf 16:25:24 +??P5 16:25:31 zakim, ??P5 is Joshue 16:25:31 +Joshue; got it 16:25:33 marc: if something has poor support but it is the intended purpose should we created techniques 16:25:50 zakim, mute me 16:25:50 Joshue should now be muted 16:26:26 -[IPcaller] 16:26:34 loretta: replacing the link text sounds confusing for a link 16:26:47 ,...and I have conducted some screenreader tests on the aria-labelledby for link purpose technique: http://www.3needs.org/en/testing/code/aria-labelledby-for-link-purpose.html Not sure whether that is worth discussing - it seems that aria-labelledby is poorly supported on non-form elements, as James (I believe) already noted in his comments. 16:26:48 james: doesn't it depend on what you are replacing it with 16:27:18 james: labelledby makes that easier as you can point to itelf and something elsde 16:28:25 marc: almost impossible to fail 2.4.4. This would allow the "more" link to refer to a header 16:28:43 loretta: the information would be different for sighted and non-sighted users 16:29:00 loretta: this is why links feel different from other things 16:29:09 loretta: a link should be some kind of text 16:29:28 loretta: this is why i'm having this reaction to folding link in with other objects 16:30:33 zakim, unmute me 16:30:33 Joshue should no longer be muted 16:30:51 loretta: If we create link techniques should we add this 16:31:46 joshue: image without an alt not a complete structure.
