GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 461850
[blocked] Accessible hierarchy inconsistent for ARIA buttons
Last modified: 2007-09-05 15:19:31 UTC
This is a tracking bug for Mozilla bug https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=390154 . The opening comment of this bug reads: The accessible hierarchy is inconsistent for ARIA buttons and perhaps other widget types as well. Looking at the examples linked from http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Accessible_DHTML#Supported_roles and the dojo example at http://archive.dojotoolkit.org/nightly/dojotoolkit/dijit/tests/form/test_Button.html shows that buttons often have children. This is inconsistent from HTML and GTK+ widgets where I have never seen a button with children. The children seen are often paragraphs, but I have seen BUTTONS as well.
This Mozilla bug has been marked fixed.
