Pardon me, does anybody know if there's something like accessibility-warning microformats somewhere on the wiki?
#
KartikPrabhu
Tigt: accessibility warning as in?
#
KartikPrabhu
for accessibility things it might be better to use ARIA roles and not mf2
#
Tigt
sound, animation, possibility of flashing/strobing
#
Tigt
I only ask because schema.org had markup for a variety of machine-readable content flags which I thought might be useful
#
Tigt
but in typical fashion it was dense and nearly impossible to understand
#
Tigt
the ones near the top here
#
KartikPrabhu
Tigt: Schema has a lot of properties that are not very useful. and possibly redundant
#
Tigt
Indeed
#
Tigt
Having some sort of unambiguous warning for technology to pick up seemed like a valuable use-case though
#
Tigt
I've got some regular buttons for disabling sound and animation but I just wanted to double-check
#
KartikPrabhu
I'd use ARIA roles for that if they exist
#
Tigt
there's one for "alert" which kinda sorta might work
#
KartikPrabhu
maybe, i don;t know how screen readers or other software handle it though
#
Tigt
aggressively, apparently
#
Tigt
it seems to be better used for things like "are you sure you want to quit without saving"
#
Tigt
shame, I really can't find a standard or anything that has any sort of plugin/other user-agent support
#
Tigt
alright, thanks for your help
#
KartikPrabhu
Tigt: unfortunately accessibility does not get as much recognition as it should
#
Tigt
for sure
#
Tigt
I'll have to see what I can hack together
