I think that change does not allow the valuetext attribute on native fields like <input type="range"> or <progress>. Shouldn't it?
(In reply to comment #4) > I think that change does not allow the valuetext attribute on native fields > like <input type="range"> or <progress>. Shouldn't it? my understadning is that it is required that by ARIA the role be explicitly assigned to apply aria-* that have required roles. example: <input type="range" role="slider"> If this isn't the case then I will change it
Good question. That sounds like a discussion topic for XTECH or the HTML AX TF. In ARIA, the attribute is added on "range", which is an abstract role including "slider", which the HTML range input uses as its default native semantic role. Because of this, I had made the assumption that the attribute would be allowed on any element using the role, whether explicitly or implicitly, but you may be right that my assumption needs clarification or more discussion.
We've got a separate PF issue for that now. This can be closed. Thanks Steve.
