Hi,
Has anyone experienced any difference in the way JAWS 16 reads ARIA Roles
along with keyboard events compared to JAWS 15?
I have a carousal which is reading and working fine with JAWS 15 on IE 11
when operated by keyboard but it is not behaving appropriately with JAWS 16
on IE 11.
Thanks,
Avik

What has the experience with JAWS 15/16 been with the carousel in Firefox?
This could be useful to know if it is the browser or JAWS causing the issue.

Could you describe the difference in a little more detail?
Perhaps send us the URL of the page, if you can?
Thanks

Can you point to an example of the carousel? Using the application role for
a carousel wouldn't usually be a good thing. That said, I don't believe Jaws
has changed it's handling of the application role substantially between v15
and v16.
Léonie.

Here is a prototype of a more accessible carousel we are reviewing at Illinois for accessibility features based on the jquery-ui widget:
http://192.17.26.249/sandbox/carousel
Current accessibility features:
· REGION landmark with label "Carousel" to contain carousel content and controls
· Buttons to move to next and previous slide
· ARIA Listbox widget to move directly to a particular slide
o Left and right arrow keys (currently does not support up and down arrow keys)
o Enter to select the slide to make visible
Questions we are asking and would like feedback on:
1. Use of tabpanel instead of listbox widget roles
2. Keyboard support, including expose slide when option gets focus
3. Better labeling of controls
Any feedback would be very helpful. The results will help influence the bootstrap.js carousel widget and a few other libraries used at Illinois.

Greetings, all:
I wanted to post a pointer to this WAI carousel tutorial, in case
folks don't know about it and might find it handy and/or might wish
to provide comments for improvement, based on experience.
See:

Best,
Jennifer
