👉🏼 A SIMPLE CUSTOM
Had reason to re-read this recently.
“For whatever reason some people don’t like the standard HTML checkbox and radio button, they seek to jazz ’em up and in the process the often jizz up the usability/accessibility of these controls.”
"Live regions have a reputation for being "flaky" and inconsistent. While this can be attributed in part to shortcomings in current implementations, the problem can also be caused by developers misunderstanding how live regions are intended to work."
Honored to keep company with #neurologist, #DanielGibbs's #book about his own experience of #dementia. The tattoo in the title is the #brain bleed (aka #ARIA) that occurred while in #clinicaltrials related to anti-#amyloid drugs. He has no regrets & would do it all over again if it might advance brain science & help in the effort to #ENDALZ.
If you have read either my #memoir or his, please consider reviewing them on #amazon. In different ways, we both aim to inform readers & undercut #stigma.
another week, another instance where i have to explain to a developer why their aria-live region isn't working (they make it appear in the DOM, fully populated with the notification they want announced). goddammit, i need to sit down properly and propose some better language for the #ARIA spec (or core-aam) to make it clear how this scenario is supposed to work (or not). tired... #a11y#accessibility
In short:
• Use <input type="checkbox" [checked]> if you want to bulk check / uncheck a bunch of checkboxes.
• Use <button aria-pressed="true|false|mixed"> if you want to bulk expand / collapse a bunch of disclosures.
Grazie al #governo, per i prossimi dieci anni in Italia la direttiva europea che limita l'inquinamento dell'#aria non verrà applicata. Padroni a casa nostra!
La #Lombardia chiede una #deroga di dieci anni della direttiva europea che definisce la qualità dell'#aria. E offre ai suoi cittadini dei corsi di apnea a prezzo agevolato.
