Subject: [WebAIM] Perceivable screen changes in SPAs



For a desktop Single Page Application, (where there are not really page refreshes, just changes of content), nothing announces when the view changes. The one I'm looking at they actually do update the page title, but I hear nothing.



What's the best way of handling this? Will the title announce if focus is placed on the document? Should they place focus on each view's top level heading (and hope each view has one)? ...or something else?
