HTML 5 - the Future• It’s the next version of HTML• Many new features are not yet implemented
or decided upon.• Many new features that will make it easier
for developers to provide accessible and inaccessible content
• Its huge! 808 pages
WAI-ARIA NOW• Allows the adding of name, role, state and property
information to any element using attributes<div role=“slider”><input aria-required=“true”><img role=“presentation”><input type=“text” aria-haspopup=“true”>
• Its still in development, but many features are stable and implemented in browsers and AT
• It can be used with HTML, XHTML, SVG, XUL and others.
Future Potential
• Semantic elements– <nav> <article> <footer> etc.
• Will provide semantic structure• Not implemented in browsers• Not supported by AT
Future PotentialOld Way HTML 4 New Way HTML5
Future NOW• Landmark roles
– Banner, mainNavigation etc.• Chunk pages into large perceivable regions• Navigation of page in a few keystrokes• Implemented in browsers• Supported by AT (JAWS, NVDA, ORCA)• Compatible with HTML 4,5 & XHTML• Do not serve the same function as the new HTML5

HTML 5 Audio & Video– Native accessible controls
– Implemented in Firefox 3.5
– Captioning and annotations– Fallback“It has been decided that the first version of HTML5 <video>(and <audio>) will not have an in-built solution for captions, audioannotations and the like, because it is possible to do such withjavascript and external files.“Silvia Pfeiffer
Video Demo
HTML 5 Audio & Video<video src="movie.ogg">
Your browser is not video-enabled; <a href="movie.ogg">download the video</a> and <a href="movie.txt">transcript</a>.</video>
<audio src="horse.wav">Your browser does not support the audio element.
<a href=“horse.txt">transcript</a></audio>
If you want users to access content, don’t put it inside the video or audio elements
Potential shit fight
• Canvas– Is being used to produce UI’s e.g.
Bespin– Only way to make accessible is to
create a duplicate of what’s created using canvas i.e. big dirty bolt on accessibility
HTML5 Canvas element
It’s a black hole<canvas>
</canvas>
On browsers that support canvas –
you can’t access to the fallback content
HTML5 Canvas element
“When authors use the canvas element, they must also provide content that, when presented to the user, conveys essentially the same function or purpose as the bitmap canvas.
This content may be placed as content of the canvas element. The contents of the canvas element, if any, are the element's fallback content.”
Source: http://dev.w3.org/html5/spec/the-canvas-element.html#the-canvas-element
BAD advice – don’t do it.Make fallback available outside of the canvas element!
HTML5 Canvas element
Canvas based graph depicting amount of emails, issues and bugs to be processed over time.
HTML5 Canvas element
The data is provided in tabular format inside the <canvas> element.BUT nobody using a canvas supporting browser can access it unless they ‘view source’
HTML5 Canvas elementMaybe we will have better luck viewing it in IE , a browser that does not support canvas...
Potential
• Drag & Drop– native keyboard support - not mentioned in HTML 5– Pretty much maps on to ARIA drag & drop except for
providing state info about item being dragged.– Limited support for ARIA drag and drop in JAWS and
NVDA
ARIA & HTML 5Potential
• Integration of ARIA started• Integration is about defining what bits of
ARIA can be used with what bits of HTML• ARIA is a separate spec – not dependent• Does not really matter
– Validation checking is available– Support in AT and Browsers is good
ARIA & HTML 5
• ARIA validates in HTML5– Validator.nu & W3C validator have HTML5+ARIA
checking
