398156 - Several wairole to ATK object attributes missing

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: Disability Access APIs, defect)

Description

[Scott Haeger]

Recently we have lost several object attributes, namely xml-roles, related to ARIA widgets.  This is not an across the board loss, but is confined to a small subset.  I have seen the problem in the ARIA trees and comboboxes but not in the radiobuttons and others.  The problem is also not specific to HTML or XHTML.  I will try to get a more detailed list in the near future.

Here are some results of the ARIA trees.

* dojo trees: no tree object, no xml-roles:tree
* http://www.mozilla.org/access/dhtml/tree: tree object present, no xml-roles:tree
* http://www.mozilla.org/access/dhtml/class/tree: looks good
* http://test.cita.uiuc.edu/aria/tree/xhtml.php?title=Tree%20Example%201&ginc=includes/tree1a.inc&gcss=css/tree1a.css&gjs=../js/globals.js,../js/enable_app.js,js/tree1a.js: looks good

Evan, look at the Mozilla.org test case first.
