Josh: Let's leave it on the agenda until Alastair is on the call
Josh: Item 1, comment from Michael.
<Joshue> https://www.w3.org/2006/02/lc-comments-tracker/35422/WD-UNDERSTANDING-WCAG20-20140724/2944
Michael: Response is fine,
question was if in general someone probably has the same
question so I want to ask what we should do
... the commenter asked a question. Someone else may have that
question. Should we also clarify the material, as a general
rule?
... I'm asking if we should also edit the document.
Marc: We should go for
<Joshue> http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20-TECHS/F30.html
<Joshue> SC 1.4.1
<AWK> http://www.w3.org/TR/UNDERSTANDING-WCAG20/visual-audio-contrast-without-color.html
David: Maybe add a sentence about placeholder text. Maybe "Placeholder text does qualify as text".
<AWK> http://www.w3.org/TR/UNDERSTANDING-WCAG20/visual-audio-contrast-contrast.html
David: I'll take up the item
<Zakim> Bruce_Bailey, you wanted to ask about inactive drop dows
Bruce: What's the rational for not having the requirement on inactive items?
<Joshue> ACTION: David to draft new text for clarification on placeholder text a la 1.4.3 [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2014/08/05-wai-wcag-minutes.html#action01]
<trackbot> Created ACTION-267 - Draft new text for clarification on placeholder text a la 1.4.3 [on David MacDonald - due 2014-08-12].
<Joshue> action-267: https://www.w3.org/2006/02/lc-comments-tracker/35422/WD-UNDERSTANDING-WCAG20-20140724/2944
<trackbot> Notes added to action-267 Draft new text for clarification on placeholder text a la 1.4.3.
David: It was a concurrences, was not in there originally. Was negotiated for
<Joshue> action-267: http://www.w3.org/TR/2014/NOTE-WCAG20-TECHS-20140408/G148
<trackbot> Notes added to action-267 Draft new text for clarification on placeholder text a la 1.4.3.
<Joshue> action-267: http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20-TECHS/F30.html
<trackbot> Notes added to action-267 Draft new text for clarification on placeholder text a la 1.4.3.
Bruce: I think placeholder text is in the same state a lot of times
<Joshue> +q
Bruce: Sometimes it would be reasonable to say sometimes it is an inactive element, though obviously the field is editable
Loretta: The purpose is to
provide information about the field. If people can't read it
there is no point in having it there
... I think it's not inactive. It must be perceivable.
Mike: I agree with Loretta. It seems to me it's informative to completion of the task.
Andrew: Agree with Loretta. Is it ok if you have the same text adjacent to it?
Josh: Most people feel that it should be perceivable.
David: I'll be glad to take the action
Josh: Add these notes to the action
Michael: If we take an action we can't finish the comment now. Maybe improve the wording.
Andrew: We don't have to tell we are going to do something. We answer the question.
Josh: I prefer to have the action
Michael: Don't close the comment before the action is finished
Josh: Leave the action open
<David> The minimum contrast success criterion (1.4.3) applies to text in the page, and placeholder text is text in the page. If used, placeholder text needs to provide sufficient contrast in order to avoid a 1.4.3 failure.
Marc: Maybe say "informative placeholder text"?
Mike: Maybe "Unless the information is provided somewhere else?"
Josh: I think it may be confusing to say "informative"
<AWK> I'd like to remove "in order to avoid a 1.4.3 failure" from the suggested note text.
Mike: It may be redundant if the placeholder text is elsewhere.
Josh: I don't know if we need to be that strict
<Joshue> The minimum contrast success criterion (1.4.3) applies to text in the page, and placeholder text is text in the page. If used, placeholder text needs to provide sufficient contrast

<Mike_Elledge> +1
David: Andrew's suggestion is fine
<bbailey> +1
RESOLUTION: Updated to understanding document 1.4.3
<Joshue> https://www.w3.org/2006/02/lc-comments-tracker/35422/WD-UNDERSTANDING-WCAG20-20140724/2944
RESOLUTION: Updated LC-2944 Accepted as amended
<David> http://www.w3.org/TR/UNDERSTANDING-WCAG20/visual-audio-contrast-contrast.html
Josh: go to item 5
<Joshue> LC-2941: Social Media Buttons
<Joshue> https://www.w3.org/2006/02/lc-comments-tracker/35422/REC-WCAG20-20081211/2941
Andrew: If you can please do "TOPIC colon ITEM"
Josh: Loretta made a point about conformance to level A
Loretta: We might want to add
some of that text to the response.
... I'm wondering if partial conformance could be a solution
for such problem
Josh: Is this a common pattern
for social media sites?
... He's wondering if partial conformance can be applied to
these sites
... In the reply Andrew makes the point that not all do
this.
... What do we need to say to that?
Andrew: I added a middle paragraph
Josh: So the answer is that partial conformance can apply but you do fail WCAG
<Mike_Elledge> +1
Loretta: Response looks good
Josh: Christoph mentions that there are alternatives to the button. Andrew already mentions this
RESOLUTION: LC-2941 Accepted as amended
<Joshue> LC-2909
<Joshue> https://www.w3.org/2006/02/lc-comments-tracker/35422/NOTE-UNDERSTANDING-WCAG20-20140306/2909
Josh: I thought Andrew made a connection with the Jaws issue, but no
Sailesh: It addresses my
response
... my concern is that if you insert a heading where there is
none, as an off screen heading, that is not for 1.3.1 or
2.3.1
... In that case H42 kicks in.
... Inserting a heading only for skipping that would be more
then the criterion requires.
... and an off screen heading is a CSS technique, not HTML
Andrew: I intend for the heading
to be visible. I don't think you pass 2.4.10 with invisible
headings
... H69 is sufficient for 2.4.9 and can also be for 2.4.10. But
invisible headings don't allow you to meet 2.4.10
Sailesh: Only 2.4.10 requires visible headings
Andrew: I don't think you can meet 2.4.1 with off screen headers either
Sailesh: If there has to be a
technique to navigate having it would have to be an off screen
heading
... on one hand you argue that you can have 2.4.1 and 2.4.10
together. You can do H69 to meet 2.4.1
Josh: Headings are a well established way. You shouldn't insert headings just to bypass blocks, doesn't make sense
Mike: Underlying question is if
having a heading is right. It is supposed to precede a section.
There is other way to bypass content
... it may be an incorrect way to use a heading.
Loretta: People shouldn't think they have to put headings everywhere
Josh: We need to make it clear that you don't need to add headings because there are other ways
Sailesh: I can work on a new
technique for that.
... If you use H42 that follows a repetitive block, it can meet
2.4.1
Loretta: I don't think it's hard
to combine those
... This is off the track from the current issue
Andrew: I think for H42 you just
have to mark up text that are headings. They could ocure prior
to sections to jump over. You can pass H42 without meeting
2.4.1
... The techniques cover more ground separate then together
Josh: Developers look at WCAG
different then we do.
... Suggest leaving the idea of merging the H42 and H69
<AWK> Does anyone else on the group feel that we should merge H69 and H42?
Andrew: We probably won't create
a new technique in the next few weeks. I suggest we modify this
technique so that it covers 2.4.1 and 2.4.10
... We can make a technique just for 2.4.1. Then split H69 out
later on
Josh: Right, that would incrementally improve the techniques
Sailesh: i don't understand how to have a technique for just 2.4.1
<Joshue> <discussion continues>
<Joshue> Next week take up from Item 4 https://www.w3.org/2002/09/wbs/35422/20140805/results#xlc2944
<AWK> Are we going to call for acceptance on 2909?
<Mike_Elledge> +1
<Joshue> RESOLUTION: LC 2909 accepted as amended, Sailesh expressed concern
<Mike_Elledge> bye! Have a good vacation!
