Accessibility
The Chat is accessible by screen readers and provides full WAI-ARIA accessibility support.
WAI-ARIA Support
That Chat message list is a live region of type log. Screen readers will typically announce new messages as they arrive, regardless of the currently active element on the page.
The component follows the WAI-ARIA best practices for implementing the keyboard navigation and is tested against the popular screen readers.
Section 508
The Chat is compliant with the Section 508 requirements.
Limitations
The following issues are related to the WAI-ARIA support limitations of browsers and screen readers:
- Internet Explorer 10 and 11 work best with the Jaws screen reader. Other readers are not supported very well. For more information, refer to issue 817699.
- Microsoft Edge works best with Microsoft Narrator screen reader. For more information, refer to issue 8571350.
