No previous message | Next message →

Hello all, greetings.
Hope all are doing good.
I need some recommendations to make section 508 course accessible.
Currently, I am trying to give the feedback for the dhs training
division to make the training accessible.
in this regards, I have some questions.

In the practical testing page, some of the elements are not keyboard
focusable, but, I want the visually impaired people should no that,
the page has some elements which is not focusable with keyboard.
but, how can I convey them.

Department of Homeland Security has very strict standards for compliance,
if that is what you mean. You should be testing stuff made for them using
their Trusted Tester guidelines. I am not an expert in their guidelines,
but I am pretty certain that they will not only accept test results based
on those.

Benson, thanks for the quick response.
but, can visually impaired successfully complete the training without
taking sighted assistance?

I got the document from them, where they mentioned, the screen reader
user has to take the sighted assistance some time to complete the
course when the keyboard focus does not reach the elements or keyboard
got trapped.

Shenkar,

If the document says that some elements in the course are not keyboard
operable it means that the course authors are aware of the problems.
However I recommend you to inform the team concerned.
May be you can point to specific WCAG 2.0 success criteria 2.1.1 Keyboard
only to mention how keyboard only and screen reader users are effected due
to inaccessible course content.

Thanks & Regards
Rakesh

When you say not all elements are keyboard focusable, that may not be a problem. Only certain elements (anchors and form elements) are natively focusable. The other elements are intended to be navigated with the virtual cursor (the arrow keys). If you mean that not all elements are accessible via the keyboard only, then that is a problem. I just want to point out that not all elements in a page need to be in the tab order to be navigable by keyboard.

I believe at least one person from the trusted tester program is on this
list. If you do not get direct feedback, contact me at = EMAIL ADDRESS REMOVED =
and I will make sure the OAST staff is aware of your concerns.

Best Wishes,
