Understanding Accessibility

Guideline 8. Ensure direct accessibility of embedded user interfaces.

When an embedded object (flash, shockwave, applets) has its "own interface", the interface itself must be accessible. If the interface of the embedded object cannot be made accessible, an alternative accessible solution must be provided. There is only 1 checkpoints in Guideline 8.

No. Checkpoint Priority Disability Accommodated
8.1 Make programmatic elements such as scripts and applets directly accessible or compatible with assistive technologies Priority 1 if functionality is important and not presented elsewhere, otherwise Priority 2 Blind
