508 / Accessibility for Web Dynpro

Posted on Jan 28, 2005 at 11:02 AM 46 Views

Hi,

Does web dynpro support accessibility / 508 ?

As I have read and heard on teh techEd the web dynpro stack9 will support this, so I can set the property sap-accessibility=x resp. accessibilityDescription="testtext".

Also in the thread "Keyboard access to UI Element"

Accessibility has been addressed and will be supported in the production release.

So I have download the WAS 6.40 as a 90 days test licence. But in the NW Dev. Studio there is no such a attribute for the GUI elements. Do I have to upgrade? But how?

Regards Ralph

    What do you mean with "<i>there is no such a attribute for the GUI elements</i>"?

    You can add an URL parameter 

    sap-accessibility=true

    to switch to accessibility mode.

      If a UI element event is triggered by some key (combination), you may bind an action to this event as usual. But there is no new API to map arbitrary key combinations to events.

      Accessibility mode means that the application can be used by impaired people e.g. with support from a screen reader etc.
