Subject: Best practise for Application mode
No previous message | Next message →
All,
I am seeking advice on the use of application mode. I have seen this appear on web pages that I cannot share at this stage. The two situations that I have seen application mode is:
1. Multi Media training material.
2. collaboration sites where normal HTML form controls are being used in Application mode.
So is there any guidelines for developer's on the use of application mode in browsers?

There is very good guidance on this in the last section of chapter 2
of Using ARIA in html:
http://www.w3.org/TR/aria-in-html/
It should have its own entry in its table of contents, but it is in
section 2.10.
I could ellaborate, but I think this pretty much sums up all my
thoughts on the subject.
I have recommended this role only for a datepicker consisting of a
grid and a toolbar, where all keyboard interaction is controlled via
Javascript, and all content is tied to focusable controls.
Hope this hels, this page really is a must read for accessibility testers.

Looking at the context, it looks like a typo. The application heading is
marked up as an h3. The discussion on role="presentation" is also an h3,
and given a slot in the table of contents.
