Page for Testing ARIA-Flowto and ARIA-owns Implementations

The three examples on this page implement approaches to altering the screen reader readng order of sections on a page using the aria-flowto attribute. The example code is altered from Using aria-flowto.

Example 1: Flow from Daily Plantet Heading to Election Results DIV

Using aria-flowto to suggest a navigation path from the heading element to div elements, labeled using aria-labelledby.


The Daily Planet One (and a link to nowhere for testing tab order)

Weather One

The weather will be what it will be, if you want a forecast look out your window and have a guess. That's what the pros do! (and a link to nowhere)

Election Results One

Whoever you vote for government wins. ANOK 1984 (and a link to nowhere)

Sports One

Today there will be lots of goals scored, tennis played and footballs kicked. (and a link to nowhere)

Example 2: Flow from Daily Plantet Heading to Election Results Section

Example 3: Flow from Daily Planet Heading to a Choice of Sections

Testing ARIA-owns and Tab Order

The example below is cribbed from an old post from Leonie Watson, with some links (that go nowhere) dumped in to see if ARIA-owns affects tab order.
