WAI-ARIA
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
WAI-ARIA (Web Accessibility Initiative - Accessible Rich Interactive Applications) is a draft technical specification[1] expected to become a W3C Recommended Web Standard in 2008. It allows web pages (or portions of pages) to declare themselves as applications rather than as static documents, by adding role, property, and state information to dynamic web applications. ARIA is intended for use by developers of web applications, browsers (or user agents), assistive technologies (or ATs), and accessibility evaluation tools.[2]
