This is an archived snapshot of W3C's public bugzilla bug tracker, decommissioned in April 2019. Please see the home page for more details.
When placing a click handler on an element that has children that can also be clicked on, the children have to also have click handlers or WAI-ARIA roles that cause them to have actions associated with them. See comment 210 http://www.w3.org/WAI/PF/Group/comments/update?comment_id=210 and meeting minutes from October 20, 2009 http://www.w3.org/2009/10/20-aapi-minutes.html#item02 It was suggested at the meeting that perhaps Gez could help.
