Good call Paul. I was going to email Brian off-list and remind him about this.
It is essential to use ARIA checking tools to make sure you are using
the right roles or attributes.
Correct ARIA can make your webpage sing, but incorrect ARIA can cause
such a discord that the users are completely blocked from using the
webpage.
(try to put role="tab", role="presentation", or aria-hidden="true" on
the body element).
All aria attributes (states and properties) start with aria- (e.g.
aria-checked or aria-live).
but ARIA roles do not have the aria- prefix (e.g. role="alert" role="button".
Always verify with the ARIA spec.
