Re: Aria Live announcements and .Net Pages

That's what I was thinking to, but it was as Bryan said ... nesting. I pulled the div to the top of the page and it now works as expected, but why would that be an issue ... unless it's a DOM traversing issue.

Bryan ... I tried aria-live, and nothing. Using Role='Alert' does work. But as noted above, it has to be at the top of the page. Not exactly the look I'm looking for, but I'll see if I can move it down with CSS.

Question now is why? Bootstrap does use a lot div's, but why would nesting effect a tags usage?
