Abstract

Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.0 covers a wide range of recommendations for making Web content more accessible. Following these guidelines will make content accessible to a wider range of people with disabilities, including blindness and low vision, deafness and hearing loss, learning disabilities, cognitive limitations, limited movement, speech disabilities, photosensitivity and combinations of these. Following these guidelines will also often make your Web content more usable to users in general.

WCAG 2.0 success criteria are written as testable statements that are not technology-specific. Guidance about satisfying the success criteria in specific technologies, as well as general information about interpreting the success criteria, is provided in separate documents. See Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) Overview (http://www.w3.org/WAI/intro/wcag.php) for an introduction and links to WCAG technical and educational material.

WCAG 2.0 succeeds Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 1.0 (http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG10/) [WCAG10 (http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20/#WCAG10)], which was published as a W3C Recommendation May 1999. Although it is possible to conform either to WCAG 1.0 or to WCAG 2.0 (or both), the W3C recommends that new and updated content use WCAG 2.0. The W3C also recommends that Web accessibility policies reference WCAG 2.0.

摘要

网页内容无障碍指南（WCAG ） 2.0涵盖范围广泛，涉及了一些建议，这些建议可使网站内容更容易访问。遵循这些指南，网站设计者可以将内容提供给广大残疾人士，包括盲人和低视力，聋人和重度听障人士，学习障碍，认知障碍，行动不便者，言语残疾，感光残疾和组合残疾者。遵循这些指南也可让普通用户更容易使用您的网站内容。

WCAG 2.0成功的标准的写作是非特定技术的可测试声明。指南另附一份文档来说明特定技术条件的标准，以及标准的解释说明。具体内容请查看网页内容无障碍指南（WCAG ）概况以及阅读WCAG技术和教育材料的的介绍和链接。

WCAG 2.0的前身是网页内容可访问性指南1.0 [ WCAG10 ] ，1.0 [ WCAG10 ]是1999年5月W3C的推荐标准。虽然可以使用WCAG 1.0或者WCAG 2.0 标准（或两者）， W3C仍然建议新开发的和升级内容使用WCAG 2.0 。W3C还建议制定网页无障碍的政策也请参考WCAG 2.0 。

Introduction

This section is informative.

Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.0 defines how to make Web content more accessible to people with disabilities. Accessibility involves a wide range of disabilities, including visual, auditory, physical, speech, cognitive, language, learning, and neurological disabilities. Although these guidelines cover a wide range of issues, they are not able to address the needs of people with all types, degrees, and combinations of disability. These guidelines also make Web content more usable by older individuals with changing abilities due to aging and often improve usability for users in general.

WCAG 2.0 is developed through the W3C process (http://www.w3.org/WAI/intro/w3c-process.php) in cooperation with individuals and organizations around the world, with a goal of providing a shared standard for Web content accessibility that meets the needs of individuals, organizations, and governments internationally. WCAG 2.0 builds on WCAG 1.0 [WCAG10 (http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20/#WCAG10)] and is designed to apply broadly to different Web technologies now and in the future, and to be testable with a combination of automated testing and human evaluation. For an introduction to WCAG, see the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) Overview (http://www.w3.org/WAI/intro/wcag.php).

Web accessibility depends not only on accessible content but also on accessible Web browsers and other user agents. Authoring tools also have an important role in Web accessibility. For an overview of how these components of Web development and interaction work together, see:

      Essential Components of Web Accessibility (http://www.w3.org/WAI/intro/components)
      User Agent Accessibility Guidelines (UAAG) Overview (http://www.w3.org/WAI/intro/uaag.php)

导言

本节内容丰富。

网页无障碍指南（WCAG）2.0定义了如何使残疾人士更方便使用Web内容。无障碍涉及内容广泛，包括残疾人视觉，听觉，身体，语言，认知，语言，学习以及神经残疾的范围。尽管这些指南内容广泛，但它无法有效地满足所有类型的人群和残疾程度的人的需要。这些指南也适合老年人上网，还可让普通用户更好的使用。

WCAG 2.0是通过W3C进程与世界各地的个人和组织合作开发的，以提供一个网页无障碍的共同标准，满足国际上个人、组织和各国政府的需要。WCAG 2.0以无障碍网页指南1.0 [WCAG10]为基础，旨在广泛适用于现在和未来不同的网络技术，可以用自动化测试和人工评估相结合进行测试。对于WCAG介绍，请参见网页内容无障碍指南（WCAG）概述。

网页无障碍不仅取决于访问的内容，而且也取决于Web浏览器和其他用户代理。创作工具对网页无障碍来说也很重要。对于如何使网页开发和交互组件协调工作的概况，请参见：

WCAG 2.0 Layers of Guidance

The individuals and organizations that use WCAG vary widely and include Web designers and developers, policy makers, purchasing agents, teachers, and students. In order to meet the varying needs of this audience, several layers of guidance are provided including overall principles, general guidelines, testable success criteria and a rich collection of sufficient techniques, advisory techniques, and documented common failures with examples, resource links and code.

      Principles - At the top are four principles that provide the foundation for Web accessibility: perceivable, operable, understandable, and robust. See also Understanding the Four Principles of Accessibility (http://www.w3.org/TR/UNDERSTANDING-WCAG20/intro.html#introduction-fourprincs-head).

      Guidelines - Under the principles are guidelines. The 12 guidelines provide the basic goals that authors should work toward in order to make content more accessible to users with different disabilities. The guidelines are not testable, but provide the framework and overall objectives to help authors understand the success criteria and better implement the techniques.

      Success Criteria - For each guideline, testable success criteria are provided to allow WCAG 2.0 to be used where requirements and conformance testing are necessary such as in design specification, purchasing, regulation, and contractual agreements. In order to meet the needs of different groups and different situations, three levels of conformance are defined: A (lowest), AA, and AAA (highest). Additional information on WCAG levels can be found in Understanding Levels of Conformance (http://www.w3.org/TR/UNDERSTANDING-WCAG20/conformance.html#uc-levels-head).

      Sufficient and Advisory Techniques - For each of the guidelines and success criteria in the WCAG 2.0 document itself, the working group has also documented a wide variety of techniques. The techniques are informative and fall into two categories: those that are sufficient for meeting the success criteria and those that are advisory. The advisory techniques go beyond what is required by the individual success criteria and allow authors to better address the guidelines. Some advisory techniques address accessibility barriers that are not covered by the testable success criteria. Where common failures are known, these are also documented. See also Sufficient and Advisory Techniques in Understanding WCAG 2.0 (http://www.w3.org/TR/UNDERSTANDING-WCAG20/intro.html#introduction-layers-techs-head).

All of these layers of guidance (principles, guidelines, success criteria, and sufficient and advisory techniques) work together to provide guidance on how to make content more accessible. Authors are encouraged to view and apply all layers that they are able to, including the advisory techniques, in order to best address the needs of the widest possible range of users.

Note that even content that conforms at the highest level (AAA) will not be accessible to individuals with all types, degrees, or combinations of disability, particularly in the cognitive language and learning areas. Authors are encouraged to consider the full range of techniques, including the advisory techniques, as well as to seek relevant advice about current best practice to ensure that Web content is accessible, as far as possible, to this community. Metadata (http://www.w3.org/TR/UNDERSTANDING-WCAG20/appendixC.html#understanding-metadata) may assist users in finding content most suitable for their needs.

WCAG 2.0指南结构

使用WCAG的个人和组织差别很大，包括网络设计者和开发者，政策制定者，采购人员，教师和学生。为了满足这些人员的不同需求，指南架构提供了包括整体原则，一般准则，测试的成功标准和丰富的技术、建议技术，并为记录在案的常见故障提供了丰富的例子，资源链接及代码。

 •原则-首先是四大原则，它提供了网页无障碍的基础：感知，可操作性，易于理解和鲁棒性。参见理解无障碍四项原则。 
 •准则-原则之下是准则。提供的12项准则是为了达到这样一个基本目标，这个目标是作者应努力以使内容更容易让不同残疾用户能够访问。该准则是不可测试的，但提供了框架和总体目标，以帮助作者了解成功的标准和更好地实现该技术。 
 •成功的标准-对每一个准则，提供了可测试的成功标准，以允许WCAG 2.0被用在需要进行需求和一致性测试的地方，例如设计规范，采购，管理，合同协议。为了满足不同的群体和不同的情况，我们定义了一致性的三个级别：A（最低），AA，AAA级（最高）。关于WCAG级别的信息可在理解一致性级别里找到。
 •丰富而富有建设性的技巧-对于WCAG 2.0文件里每条准则和成功的标准，工作组也说明了范围广泛的各种技术。该技术内容丰富，且分为两类：足够达到成功标准的技术和所建议的技术。所建议的技术已超越了独立的成功标准的要求，让作者更好地理解准则。一些所建议的技术解决了一些障碍，这些障碍是可测试的成功标准所不能覆盖。凡是已知的常见故障，都已记录在案。参见理解WCAG2.0里的丰富的所建议的技术。

指南的所有层次（原则，准则，成功的标准，以及丰富的所建议的技术）能够协调工作，以提供使内容更易于访问的指导。鼓励作者浏览和应用他们能用上的层次，包括所建议的技术，以更好地满足用户的尽可能广泛的需求。

请注意，即使是符合最高级别（AAA级）的内容也不能保证被所有类型和程度或组合残疾特别是在语言和认知学习领域存在障碍的个人所访问。鼓励作者考虑所有的各种技术，包括所建议的技术，以及征求关于当前最佳实践的咨询意见，以确保Web内容可以被访问，尽可能对这个社会达到无障碍。元数据可以协助用户寻找最适合他们需求的内容。

Important Terms in WCAG 2.0

WCAG 2.0 includes three important terms that are different from WCAG 1.0. Each of these is introduced briefly below and defined more fully in the glossary.

Web Page

    It is important to note that, in this standard, the term "Web page" includes much more than static HTML pages. It also includes the increasingly dynamic Web pages that are emerging on the Web, including "pages" that can present entire virtual interactive communities. For example, the term "Web page" includes an immersive, interactive movie-like experience found at a single URI. For more information, see Understanding "Web Page" (http://www.w3.org/TR/UNDERSTANDING-WCAG20/conformance.html#uc-web-page-head).

Programmatically Determined

    Several success criteria require that content (or certain aspects of content) can be "programmatically determined." This means that the content is delivered in such a way that user agents, including assistive technologies, can extract and present this information to users in different modalities. For more information, see Understanding Programmatically Determined (http://www.w3.org/TR/UNDERSTANDING-WCAG20/conformance.html#uc-programmatically-determined-head).

Accessibility Supported

    Using a technology in a way that is accessibility supported means that it works with assistive technologies (AT) and the accessibility features of operating systems, browsers, and other user agents. Technology features can only be relied upon to conform to WCAG 2.0 success criteria if they are used in a way that is "accessibility supported". Technology features can be used in ways that are not accessibility supported (do not work with assistive technologies, etc.) as long as they are not relied upon to conform to any success criterion (i.e., the same information or functionality is also available another way that is supported).

    The definition of "accessibility supported" is provided in the Appendix A: Glossary (http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20/#glossary) section of these guidelines. For more information, see Understanding Accessibility Support (http://www.w3.org/TR/UNDERSTANDING-WCAG20/conformance.html#uc-accessibility-support-head).

WCAG 2.0重要术语

WCAG 2.0包括三个重要术语，这些与WCAG 1.0有所区别。以下给出这些术语的简要介绍，以更充分地定义本词汇。

网页

需要指出的是，在这个标准中，术语“网页”不仅仅包括静态HTML网页，它还包括网络上越来越多的动态网页，也包括呈现整个虚拟互动社区的“网页”。例如术语“网页”包括了令人身临其境的交互式电影，很像在单一的URI中发现的经验。有关更多信息，请参阅了解“网页”。

依编程而定的

几个成功的标准要求内容（或某些方面的内容），可以是“依编程而定的。”这也就是说，内容可采用用户代理这样的方式，比如包括辅助技术，可以以不同形式提取和呈现信息给用户。有关更多信息，请参阅理解依编程而定的

支持无障碍的

以支持无障碍的方式使用技术，是指需要与辅助技术（AT）和操作系统、浏览器和其他用户代理的无障碍特性协同工作。如果要以这些支持无障碍的方式使用技术，技术特性只能依赖于符合WCAG 2.0的成功标准。也可以以不支持无障碍的方式使用技术特性（比如不使用辅助技术等），只要他们不依靠符合任何成功的标准（比如也可以另一种方式支持相同的信息或功能）。

指南的附录A词汇部分也给出“支持无障碍的”的定义。有关更多信息，请参阅理解无障碍支持。

Guideline 2.1 Keyboard Accessible: Make all functionality available from a keyboard.

Understanding Guideline 2.1 (http://www.w3.org/TR/UNDERSTANDING-WCAG20/keyboard-operation.html)

2.1.1 Keyboard: All functionality of the content is operable through a keyboard interface without requiring specific timings for individual keystrokes, except where the underlying function requires input that depends on the path of the user's movement and not just the endpoints. (Level A)

Note 1: This exception relates to the underlying function, not the input technique. For example, if using handwriting to enter text, the input technique (handwriting) requires path-dependent input but the underlying function (text input) does not.

Note 2: This does not forbid and should not discourage providing mouse input or other input methods in addition to keyboard operation.

How to Meet 2.1.1 | Understanding 2.1.1

2.1.2 No Keyboard Trap: If keyboard focus can be moved to a component of the page using a keyboard interface, then focus can be moved away from that component using only a keyboard interface, and, if it requires more than unmodified arrow or tab keys or other standard exit methods, the user is advised of the method for moving focus away. (Level A)

Note: Since any content that does not meet this success criterion can interfere with a user's ability to use the whole page, all content on the Web page (whether it is used to meet other success criteria or not) must meet this success criterion. See Conformance Requirement 5: Non-Interference (http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20/#cc5).

Guideline 2.2 Enough Time: Provide users enough time to read and use content.

Understanding Guideline 2.2 (http://www.w3.org/TR/UNDERSTANDING-WCAG20/time-limits.html)

2.2.1 Timing Adjustable: For each time limit that is set by the content, at least one of the following is true: (Level A)

      Turn off: The user is allowed to turn off the time limit before encountering it; or

      Adjust: The user is allowed to adjust the time limit before encountering it over a wide range that is at least ten times the length of the default setting; or

      Extend: The user is warned before time expires and given at least 20 seconds to extend the time limit with a simple action (for example, "press the space bar"), and the user is allowed to extend the time limit at least ten times; or

      Real-time Exception: The time limit is a required part of a real-time event (for example, an auction), and no alternative to the time limit is possible; or

      Essential Exception: The time limit is essential and extending it would invalidate the activity; or

      20 Hour Exception: The time limit is longer than 20 hours.

Note: This success criterion helps ensure that users can complete tasks without unexpected changes in content or context that are a result of a time limit. This success criterion should be considered in conjunction with Success Criterion 3.2.1 (http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20/#consistent-behavior-receive-focus), which puts limits on changes of content or context as a result of user action.

How to Meet 2.2.1 | Understanding 2.2.1

2.2.2 Pause, Stop, Hide: For moving, blinking, scrolling, or auto-updating information, all of the following are true: (Level A)

      Moving, blinking, scrolling: For any moving, blinking or scrolling information that (1) starts automatically, (2) lasts more than five seconds, and (3) is presented in parallel with other content, there is a mechanism for the user to pause, stop, or hide it unless the movement, blinking, or scrolling is part of an activity where it is essential; and

      Auto-updating: For any auto-updating information that (1) starts automatically and (2) is presented in parallel with other content, there is a mechanism for the user to pause, stop, or hide it or to control the frequency of the update unless the auto-updating is part of an activity where it is essential.

Note 1: For requirements related to flickering or flashing content, refer to Guideline 2.3 (http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20/#seizure).

Note 2: Since any content that does not meet this success criterion can interfere with a user's ability to use the whole page, all content on the Web page (whether it is used to meet other success criteria or not) must meet this success criterion. See Conformance Requirement 5: Non-Interference (http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20/#cc5).

Note 3: Content that is updated periodically by software or that is streamed to the user agent is not required to preserve or present information that is generated or received between the initiation of the pause and resuming presentation, as this may not be technically possible, and in many situations could be misleading to do so.

Note 4: An animation that occurs as part of a preload phase or similar situation can be considered essential if interaction cannot occur during that phase for all users and if not indicating progress could confuse users or cause them to think that content was frozen or broken.

How to Meet 2.2.2 | Understanding 2.2.2

Conformance

This section is normative.

This section lists requirements for conformance to WCAG 2.0. It also gives information about how to make conformance claims, which are optional. Finally, it describes what it means to be accessibility supported, since only accessibility-supported ways of using technologies can be relied upon for conformance. Understanding Conformance (http://www.w3.org/TR/UNDERSTANDING-WCAG20/conformance.html) includes further explanation of the accessibility-supported concept.

[编辑]

Conformance Requirements

In order for a Web page to conform to WCAG 2.0, all of the following conformance requirements must be satisfied:

1. Conformance Level: One of the following levels of conformance is met in full.

      Level A: For Level A conformance (the minimum level of conformance), the Web page satisfies all the Level A Success Criteria, or a conforming alternate version is provided.

      Level AA: For Level AA conformance, the Web page satisfies all the Level A and Level AA Success Criteria, or a Level AA conforming alternate version is provided.

      Level AAA: For Level AAA conformance, the Web page satisfies all the Level A, Level AA and Level AAA Success Criteria, or a Level AAA conforming alternate version is provided.

Note 1: Although conformance can only be achieved at the stated levels, authors are encouraged to report (in their claim) any progress toward meeting success criteria from all levels beyond the achieved level of conformance.

Note 2: It is not recommended that Level AAA conformance be required as a general policy for entire sites because it is not possible to satisfy all Level AAA Success Criteria for some content.

2. Full pages: Conformance (and conformance level) is for full Web page(s) only, and cannot be achieved if part of a Web page is excluded.

Note 1: For the purpose of determining conformance, alternatives to part of a page's content are considered part of the page when the alternatives can be obtained directly from the page, e.g., a long description or an alternative presentation of a video.

Note 2: Authors of Web pages that cannot conform due to content outside of the author's control may consider a Statement of Partial Conformance (http://www.w3.org/TR/2008/REC-WCAG20-20081211/#conformance-partial).

3. Complete processes: When a Web page is one of a series of Web pages presenting a process (i.e., a sequence of steps that need to be completed in order to accomplish an activity), all Web pages in the process conform at the specified level or better. (Conformance is not possible at a particular level if any page in the process does not conform at that level or better.)

Example: An online store has a series of pages that are used to select and purchase products. All pages in the series from start to finish (checkout) conform in order for any page that is part of the process to conform.

4. Only Accessibility-Supported Ways of Using Technologies: Only accessibility-supported ways of using technologies are relied upon to satisfy the success criteria. Any information or functionality that is provided in a way that is not accessibility supported is also available in a way that is accessibility supported. (See Understanding accessibility support (http://www.w3.org/TR/UNDERSTANDING-WCAG20/conformance.html#uc-accessibility-support-head).)

5. Non-Interference: If technologies are used in a way that is not accessibility supported, or if they are used in a non-conforming way, then they do not block the ability of users to access the rest of the page. In addition, the Web page as a whole continues to meet the conformance requirements under each of the following conditions:

   1. when any technology that is not relied upon is turned on in a user agent,
   2. when any technology that is not relied upon is turned off in a user agent, and
   3. when any technology that is not relied upon is not supported by a user agent

In addition, the following success criteria apply to all content on the page, including content that is not otherwise relied upon to meet conformance, because failure to meet them could interfere with any use of the page:

      1.4.2 - Audio Control,

      2.1.2 - No Keyboard Trap,

      2.3.1 - Three Flashes or Below Threshold, and

      2.2.2 - Pause, Stop, Hide.

Note: If a page cannot conform (for example, a conformance test page or an example page), it cannot be included in the scope of conformance or in a conformance claim.

For more information, including examples, see Understanding Conformance Requirements (http://www.w3.org/TR/UNDERSTANDING-WCAG20/conformance.html#uc-conformance-requirements-head).

[编辑]

Conformance Claims (Optional)

Conformance is defined only for Web pages. However, a conformance claim may be made to cover one page, a series of pages, or multiple related Web pages.

[编辑]

Required Components of a Conformance Claim

Conformance claims are not required. Authors can conform to WCAG 2.0 without making a claim. However, if a conformance claim is made, then the conformance claim must include the following information:

   1. Date of the claim
   2. Guidelines title, version and URI  "Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.0 at http://www.w3.org/TR/2008/REC-WCAG20-20081211/ (http://www.w3.org/TR/2008/REC-WCAG20-20081211/)"
   3. Conformance level satisfied: (Level A, AA or AAA)
   4. A concise description of the Web pages, such as a list of URIs for which the claim is made, including whether subdomains are included in the claim.

      Note 1: The Web pages may be described by list or by an expression that describes all of the URIs included in the claim.

      Note 2: Web-based products that do not have a URI prior to installation on the customer's Web site may have a statement that the product would conform when installed.
   5. A list of the  Web content technologies relied upon.

Note: If a conformance logo is used, it would constitute a claim and must be accompanied by the required components of a conformance claim listed above.

[编辑]

Optional Components of a Conformance Claim

In addition to the required components of a conformance claim above, consider providing additional information to assist users. Recommended additional information includes:

      A list of success criteria beyond the level of conformance claimed that have been met. This information should be provided in a form that users can use, preferably machine-readable metadata.
      A list of the specific technologies that are "used but not relied upon."
      A list of user agents, including assistive technologies that were used to test the content.
      Information about any additional steps taken that go beyond the success criteria to enhance accessibility.
      A machine-readable metadata version of the list of specific technologies that are relied upon.
      A machine-readable metadata version of the conformance claim.

Note 1: Refer to Understanding Conformance Claims (http://www.w3.org/TR/UNDERSTANDING-WCAG20/conformance.html#uc-conformance-claims-head) for more information and example conformance claims.

Note 2: Refer to Understanding Metadata (http://www.w3.org/TR/UNDERSTANDING-WCAG20/appendixC.html#understanding-metadata) for more information about the use of metadata in conformance claims.

[编辑]

Statement of Partial Conformance - Third Party Content

Sometimes, Web pages are created that will later have additional content added to them. For example, an email program, a blog, an article that allows users to add comments, or applications supporting user-contributed content. Another example would be a page, such as a portal or news site, composed of content aggregated from multiple contributors, or sites that automatically insert content from other sources over time, such as when advertisements are inserted dynamically.

In these cases, it is not possible to know at the time of original posting what the uncontrolled content of the pages will be. It is important to note that the uncontrolled content can affect the accessibility of the controlled content as well. Two options are available:

   1. A determination of conformance can be made based on best knowledge. If a page of this type is monitored and repaired (non-conforming content is removed or brought into conformance) within two business days, then a determination or claim of conformance can be made since, except for errors in externally contributed content which are corrected or removed when encountered, the page conforms. No conformance claim can be made if it is not possible to monitor or correct non-conforming content;

      OR
   2. A "statement of partial conformance" may be made that the page does not conform, but could conform if certain parts were removed. The form of that statement would be, "This page does not conform, but would conform to WCAG 2.0 at level X if the following parts from uncontrolled sources were removed." In addition, the following would also be true of uncontrolled content that is described in the statement of partial conformance:
         1. It is not content that is under the author's control.
         2. It is described in a way that users can identify (e.g., they cannot be described as "all parts that we do not control" unless they are clearly marked as such.)

[编辑]

Statement of Partial Conformance - Language

A "statement of partial conformance due to language" may be made when the page does not conform, but would conform if accessibility support existed for (all of) the language(s) used on the page. The form of that statement would be, "This page does not conform, but would conform to WCAG 2.0 at level X if accessibility support existed for the following language(s):"

[编辑]

Appendix A: Glossary

This section is normative.

abbreviation

    shortened form of a word, phrase, or name where the abbreviation has not become part of the language

    Note 1: This includes initialisms and acronyms where:

       1. initialisms are shortened forms of a name or phrase made from the initial letters of words or syllables contained in that name or phrase

          Note 1: Not defined in all languages.

          Example 1: SNCF is a French initialism that contains the initial letters of the Société Nationale des Chemins de Fer, the French national railroad.

          Example 2: ESP is an initialism for extrasensory perception.
       2. acronyms are abbreviated forms made from the initial letters or parts of other words (in a name or phrase) which may be pronounced as a word

          Example: NOAA is an acronym made from the initial letters of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration in the United States.

    Note 2: Some companies have adopted what used to be an initialism as their company name. In these cases, the new name of the company is the letters (for example, Ecma) and the word is no longer considered an abbreviation.

accessibility supported

    supported by users' assistive technologies as well as the accessibility features in browsers and other user agents

    To qualify as an accessibility-supported use of a Web content technology (or feature of a technology), both 1 and 2 must be satisfied for a Web content technology (or feature):

       1. The way that the Web content technology is used must be supported by users' assistive technology (AT). This means that the way that the technology is used has been tested for interoperability with users' assistive technology in the human language(s) of the content,

          AND
       2. The Web content technology must have accessibility-supported user agents that are available to users. This means that at least one of the following four statements is true:
             1. The technology is supported natively in widely-distributed user agents that are also accessibility supported (such as HTML and CSS);

                OR
             2. The technology is supported in a widely-distributed plug-in that is also accessibility supported;

                OR
             3. The content is available in a closed environment, such as a university or corporate network, where the user agent required by the technology and used by the organization is also accessibility supported;

                OR
             4. The user agent(s) that support the technology are accessibility supported and are available for download or purchase in a way that:

                      does not cost a person with a disability any more than a person without a disability and
                      is as easy to find and obtain for a person with a disability as it is for a person without disabilities.

    Note 1: The WCAG Working group and the W3C do not specify which or how much support by assistive technologies there must be for a particular use of a Web technology in order for it to be classified as accessibility supported. (See Level of Assistive Technology Support Needed for "Accessibility Support" (http://www.w3.org/TR/UNDERSTANDING-WCAG20/conformance.html#uc-support-level-head).)

    Note 2: Web technologies can be used in ways that are not accessibility supported as long as they are not relied upon and the page as a whole meets the conformance requirements, including Conformance Requirement 4: Only Accessibility-Supported Ways of Using Technologies (http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20/#cc4) and Conformance Requirement 5: Non-Interference (http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20/#cc5), are met.

    Note 3: When a Web Technology is used in a way that is "accessibility supported," it does not imply that the entire technology or all uses of the technology are supported. Most technologies, including HTML, lack support for at least one feature or use. Pages conform to WCAG only if the uses of the technology that are accessibility supported can be relied upon to meet WCAG requirements.

    Note 4: When citing Web content technologies that have multiple versions, the version(s) supported should be specified.

    Note 5: One way for authors to locate uses of a technology that are accessibility supported would be to consult compilations of uses that are documented to be accessibility supported. (See Understanding Accessibility-Supported Web Technology Uses (http://www.w3.org/TR/UNDERSTANDING-WCAG20/conformance.html#uc-documented-lists-head).) Authors, companies, technology vendors, or others may document accessibility-supported ways of using Web content technologies. However, all ways of using technologies in the documentation would need to meet the definition of accessibility-supported Web content technologies above.

alternative for time-based media

    document including correctly sequenced text descriptions of time-based visual and auditory information and providing a means for achieving the outcomes of any time-based interaction

    Note: A screenplay used to create the synchronized media content would meet this definition only if it was corrected to accurately represent the final synchronized media after editing.

ambiguous to users in general

    the purpose cannot be determined from the link and all information of the Web page presented to the user simultaneously with the link (i.e., readers without disabilities would not know what a link would do until they activated it)

    Example: The word guava in the following sentence "One of the notable exports is guava" is a link. The link could lead to a definition of guava, a chart listing the quantity of guava exported or a photograph of people harvesting guava. Until the link is activated, all readers are unsure and the person with a disability is not at any disadvantage.

ASCII art

    picture created by a spatial arrangement of characters or glyphs (typically from the 95 printable characters defined by ASCII).

assistive technology (as used in this document)

    hardware and/or software that acts as a user agent, or along with a mainstream user agent, to provide functionality to meet the requirements of users with disabilities that go beyond those offered by mainstream user agents

    Note 1:  functionality provided by assistive technology includes alternative presentations (e.g., as synthesized speech or magnified content), alternative input methods (e.g., voice), additional navigation or orientation mechanisms, and content transformations (e.g., to make tables more accessible).

    Note 2: Assistive technologies often communicate data and messages with mainstream user agents by using and monitoring APIs.

    Note 3: The distinction between mainstream user agents and assistive technologies is not absolute. Many mainstream user agents provide some features to assist individuals with disabilities. The basic difference is that mainstream user agents target broad and diverse audiences that usually include people with and without disabilities. Assistive technologies target narrowly defined populations of users with specific disabilities. The assistance provided by an assistive technology is more specific and appropriate to the needs of its target users. The mainstream user agent may provide important functionality to assistive technologies like retrieving Web content from program objects or parsing markup into identifiable bundles.

    Example: Assistive technologies that are important in the context of this document include the following:

        * screen magnifiers, and other visual reading assistants, which are used by people with visual, perceptual and physical print disabilities to change text font, size, spacing, color, synchronization with speech, etc. in order to improve the visual readability of rendered text and images;
        * screen readers, which are used by people who are blind to read textual information through synthesized speech or braille;
        * text-to-speech software, which is used by some people with cognitive, language, and learning disabilities to convert text into synthetic speech;
        * speech recognition software, which may be used by people who have some physical disabilities;
        * alternative keyboards, which are used by people with certain physical disabilities to simulate the keyboard (including alternate keyboards that use head pointers, single switches, sip/puff and other special input devices.);
        * alternative pointing devices, which are used by people with certain physical disabilities to simulate mouse pointing and button activations.

audio

    the technology of sound reproduction

    Note: Audio can be created synthetically (including speech synthesis), recorded from real world sounds, or both.

audio description

    narration added to the soundtrack to describe important visual details that cannot be understood from the main soundtrack alone

    Note 1:  Audio description of video provides information about actions, characters, scene changes, on-screen text, and other visual content.

    Note 2: In standard audio description, narration is added during existing pauses in dialogue. (See also extended audio description.)

    Note 3: Where all of the video information is already provided in existing audio, no additional audio description is necessary.

    Note 4: Also called "video description" and "descriptive narration."

audio-only

    a time-based presentation that contains only audio (no video and no interaction)

blinking

    switch back and forth between two visual states in a way that is meant to draw attention

    Note: See also flash. It is possible for something to be large enough and blink brightly enough at the right frequency to be also classified as a flash.

blocks of text

    more than one sentence of text

CAPTCHA

    initialism for "Completely Automated Public Turing test to tell Computers and Humans Apart"

    Note 1: CAPTCHA tests often involve asking the user to type in text that is displayed in an obscured image or audio file.

    Note 2: A Turing test is any system of tests designed to differentiate a human from a computer. It is named after famed computer scientist Alan Turing. The term was coined by researchers at Carnegie Mellon University. [CAPTCHA (http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20/#CAPTCHA)]

captions

    synchronized visual and/or text alternative for both speech and non-speech audio information needed to understand the media content

    Note 1: Captions are similar to dialogue-only subtitles except captions convey not only the content of spoken dialogue, but also equivalents for non-dialogue audio information needed to understand the program content, including sound effects, music, laughter, speaker identification and location.

    Note 2: Closed Captions are equivalents that can be turned on and off with some players.

    Note 3: Open Captions are any captions that cannot be turned off. For example, if the captions are visual equivalent images of text embedded in video.

    Note 4: Captions should not obscure or obstruct relevant information in the video.

    Note 5: In some countries, captions are called subtitles.

    Note 6:  Audio descriptions can be, but do not need to be, captioned since they are descriptions of information that is already presented visually.

changes of context

    major changes in the content of the Web page that, if made without user awareness, can disorient users who are not able to view the entire page simultaneously

    Changes in context include changes of:

       1. user agent;
       2. viewport;
       3. focus;
       4. content that changes the meaning of the Web page.

    Note: A change of content is not always a change of context. Changes in content, such as an expanding outline, dynamic menu, or a tab control do not necessarily change the context, unless they also change one of the above (e.g., focus).

    Example: Opening a new window, moving focus to a different component, going to a new page (including anything that would look to a user as if they had moved to a new page) or significantly re-arranging the content of a page are examples of changes of context.

conformance

    satisfying all the requirements of a given standard, guideline or specification

conforming alternate version

    version that

       1. conforms at the designated level, and
       2. provides all of the same information and functionality in the same human language, and
       3. is as up to date as the non-conforming content, and
       4. for which at least one of the following is true:
             1. the conforming version can be reached from the non-conforming page via an accessibility-supported mechanism, or
             2. the non-conforming version can only be reached from the conforming version, or
             3. the non-conforming version can only be reached from a conforming page that also provides a mechanism to reach the conforming version

    Note 1: In this definition, "can only be reached" means that there is some mechanism, such as a conditional redirect, that prevents a user from "reaching" (loading) the non-conforming page unless the user had just come from the conforming version.

    Note 2: The alternate version does not need to be matched page for page with the original (e.g., the conforming alternate version may consist of multiple pages).

    Note 3: If multiple language versions are available, then conforming alternate versions are required for each language offered.

    Note 4: Alternate versions may be provided to accommodate different technology environments or user groups. Each version should be as conformant as possible. One version would need to be fully conformant in order to meet conformance requirement 1 (http://www.w3.org/TR/2008/REC-WCAG20-20081211/#cc1).

    Note 5: The conforming alternative version does not need to reside within the scope of conformance, or even on the same Web site, as long as it is as freely available as the non-conforming version.

    Note 6: Alternate versions should not be confused with supplementary content, which support the original page and enhance comprehension.

    Note 7: Setting user preferences within the content to produce a conforming version is an acceptable mechanism for reaching another version as long as the method used to set the preferences is accessibility supported.

    See Understanding Conforming Alternate Versions (http://www.w3.org/TR/UNDERSTANDING-WCAG20/conformance.html#uc-conforming-alt-versions-head)

content (Web content)

    information and sensory experience to be communicated to the user by means of a user agent, including code or markup that defines the content's structure, presentation, and interactions

context-sensitive help

    help text that provides information related to the function currently being performed

    Note: Clear labels can act as context-sensitive help.

contrast ratio

    (L1 + 0.05) / (L2 + 0.05), where

        * L1 is the relative luminance of the lighter of the colors, and
        * L2 is the relative luminance of the darker of the colors.

    Note 1: Contrast ratios can range from 1 to 21 (commonly written 1:1 to 21:1).

    Note 2: Because authors do not have control over user settings as to how text is rendered (for example font smoothing or anti-aliasing), the contrast ratio for text can be evaluated with anti-aliasing turned off.

    Note 3: For the purpose of Success Criteria 1.4.3 and 1.4.6, contrast is measured with respect to the specified background over which the text is rendered in normal usage. If no background color is specified, then white is assumed.

    Note 4: Background color is the specified color of content over which the text is to be rendered in normal usage. It is a failure if no background color is specified when the text color is specified, because the user's default background color is unknown and cannot be evaluated for sufficient contrast. For the same reason, it is a failure if no text color is specified when a background color is specified.

    Note 5: When there is a border around the letter, the border can add contrast and would be used in calculating the contrast between the letter and its background. A narrow border around the letter would be used as the letter. A wide border around the letter that fills in the inner details of the letters acts as a halo and would be considered background.

    Note 6: WCAG conformance should be evaluated for color pairs specified in the content that an author would expect to appear adjacent in typical presentation. Authors need not consider unusual presentations, such as color changes made by the user agent, except where caused by authors' code.

correct reading sequence

    any sequence where words and paragraphs are presented in an order that does not change the meaning of the content

emergency

    a sudden, unexpected situation or occurrence that requires immediate action to preserve health, safety, or property

essential

    if removed, would fundamentally change the information or functionality of the content, and information and functionality cannot be achieved in another way that would conform

extended audio description

    audio description that is added to an audiovisual presentation by pausing the video so that there is time to add additional description

    Note: This technique is only used when the sense of the video would be lost without the additional audio description and the pauses between dialogue/narration are too short.

flash

    a pair of opposing changes in relative luminance that can cause seizures in some people if it is large enough and in the right frequency range

    Note 1: See general flash and red flash thresholds for information about types of flash that are not allowed.

    Note 2: See also blinking.

functionality

    processes and outcomes achievable through user action

general flash and red flash thresholds

    a flash or rapidly changing image sequence is below the threshold (i.e., content passes) if any of the following are true:

       1. there are no more than three general flashes and / or no more than three red flashes within any one-second period; or
       2. the combined area of flashes occurring concurrently occupies no more than a total of .006 steradians within any 10 degree visual field on the screen (25% of any 10 degree visual field on the screen) at typical viewing distance

    where:

        * A general flash is defined as a pair of opposing changes in relative luminance of 10% or more of the maximum relative luminance where the relative luminance of the darker image is below 0.80; and where "a pair of opposing changes" is an increase followed by a decrease, or a decrease followed by an increase, and
        * A red flash is defined as any pair of opposing transitions involving a saturated red.

    Exception: Flashing that is a fine, balanced, pattern such as white noise or an alternating checkerboard pattern with "squares" smaller than 0.1 degree (of visual field at typical viewing distance) on a side does not violate the thresholds.

    Note 1: For general software or Web content, using a 341 x 256 pixel rectangle anywhere on the displayed screen area when the content is viewed at 1024 x 768 pixels will provide a good estimate of a 10 degree visual field for standard screen sizes and viewing distances (e.g., 15-17 inch screen at 22-26 inches). (Higher resolutions displays showing the same rendering of the content yield smaller and safer images so it is lower resolutions that are used to define the thresholds.)

    Note 2: A transition is the change in relative luminance (or relative luminance/color for red flashing) between adjacent peaks and valleys in a plot of relative luminance (or relative luminance/color for red flashing) measurement against time. A flash consists of two opposing transitions.

    Note 3: The current working definition in the field for "pair of opposing transitions involving a saturated red" is where, for either or both states involved in each transition, R/(R+ G + B) >= 0.8, and the change in the value of (R-G-B)x320 is > 20 (negative values of (R-G-B)x320 are set to zero) for both transitions. R, G, B values range from 0-1 as specified in “relative luminance” definition. [HARDING-BINNIE (http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20/#HARDING-BINNIE)]

    Note 4: Tools are available that will carry out analysis from video screen capture. However, no tool is necessary to evaluate for this condition if flashing is less than or equal to 3 flashes in any one second. Content automatically passes (see #1 and #2 above).

human language

    language that is spoken, written or signed (through visual or tactile means) to communicate with humans

    Note: See also sign language.

idiom

    phrase whose meaning cannot be deduced from the meaning of the individual words and the specific words cannot be changed without losing the meaning

    Note: idioms cannot be translated directly, word for word, without losing their (cultural or language-dependent) meaning.

    Example 1: In English, "spilling the beans" means "revealing a secret." However, "knocking over the beans" or "spilling the vegetables" does not mean the same thing.

    Example 2: In Japanese, the phrase "さじを投げる" literally translates into "he throws a spoon," but it means that there is nothing he can do and finally he gives up.

    Example 3: In Dutch, "Hij ging met de kippen op stok" literally translates into "He went to roost with the chickens," but it means that he went to bed early.

image of text

    text that has been rendered in a non-text form (e.g., an image) in order to achieve a particular visual effect

    Note: This does not include text that is part of a picture that contains significant other visual content.

    Example: A person's name on a nametag in a photograph.

informative

    for information purposes and not required for conformance

    Note: Content required for conformance is referred to as "normative."

input error

    information provided by the user that is not accepted

    Note:  This includes:

       1. Information that is required by the Web page but omitted by the user
       2. Information that is provided by the user but that falls outside the required data format or values

jargon

    words used in a particular way by people in a particular field

    Example: The word StickyKeys is jargon from the field of assistive technology/accessibility.

keyboard interface

    interface used by software to obtain keystroke input

    Note 1: A keyboard interface allows users to provide keystroke input to programs even if the native technology does not contain a keyboard.

    Example: A touchscreen PDA has a keyboard interface built into its operating system as well as a connector for external keyboards. Applications on the PDA can use the interface to obtain keyboard input either from an external keyboard or from other applications that provide simulated keyboard output, such as handwriting interpreters or speech-to-text applications with "keyboard emulation" functionality.

    Note 2: Operation of the application (or parts of the application) through a keyboard-operated mouse emulator, such as MouseKeys, does not qualify as operation through a keyboard interface because operation of the program is through its pointing device interface, not through its keyboard interface.

label

    text or other component with a text alternative that is presented to a user to identify a component within Web content

    Note 1:  A label is presented to all users whereas the name may be hidden and only exposed by assistive technology. In many (but not all) cases the name and the label are the same.

    Note 2: The term label is not limited to the label element in HTML.

large scale (text)

    with at least 18 point or 14 point bold or font size that would yield equivalent size for Chinese, Japanese and Korean (CJK) fonts

    Note 1: Fonts with extraordinarily thin strokes or unusual features and characteristics that reduce the familiarity of their letter forms are harder to read, especially at lower contrast levels.

    Note 2: Font size is the size when the content is delivered. It does not include resizing that may be done by a user.

    Note 3: The actual size of the character that a user sees is dependent both on the author-defined size and the user's display or user-agent settings. For many mainstream body text fonts, 14 and 18 point is roughly equivalent to 1.2 and 1.5 em or to 120% or 150% of the default size for body text (assuming that the body font is 100%), but authors would need to check this for the particular fonts in use. When fonts are defined in relative units, the actual point size is calculated by the user agent for display. The point size should be obtained from the user agent, or calculated based on font metrics as the user agent does, when evaluating this success criterion. Users who have low vision would be responsible for choosing appropriate settings.

    Note 4: When using text without specifying the font size, the smallest font size used on major browsers for unspecified text would be a reasonable size to assume for the font. If a level 1 heading is rendered in 14pt bold or higher on major browsers, then it would be reasonable to assume it is large text. Relative scaling can be calculated from the default sizes in a similar fashion.

    Note 5: The 18 and 14 point sizes for roman texts are taken from the minimum size for large print (14pt) and the larger standard font size (18pt). For other fonts such as CJK languages, the "equivalent" sizes would be the minimum large print size used for those languages and the next larger standard large print size.

legal commitments

    transactions where the person incurs a legally binding obligation or benefit

    Example: A marriage license, a stock trade (financial and legal), a will, a loan, adoption, signing up for the army, a contract of any type, etc.

link purpose

    nature of the result obtained by activating a hyperlink

live

    information captured from a real-world event and transmitted to the receiver with no more than a broadcast delay

    Note 1: A broadcast delay is a short (usually automated) delay, for example used in order to give the broadcaster time to queue or censor the audio (or video) feed, but not sufficient to allow significant editing.

    Note 2: If information is completely computer generated, it is not live.

lower secondary education level

    the two or three year period of education that begins after completion of six years of school and ends nine years after the beginning of primary education

    Note: This definition is based on the International Standard Classification of Education [UNESCO (http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20/#UNESCO)].

mechanism

    process or technique for achieving a result

    Note 1: The mechanism may be explicitly provided in the content, or may be relied upon to be provided by either the platform or by user agents, including assistive technologies.

    Note 2: The mechanism needs to meet all success criteria for the conformance level claimed.

media alternative for text

    media that presents no more information than is already presented in text (directly or via text alternatives)

    Note: A media alternative for text is provided for those who benefit from alternate representations of text. Media alternatives for text may be audio-only, video-only (including sign-language video), or audio-video.

name

    text by which software can identify a component within Web content to the user

    Note 1: The name may be hidden and only exposed by assistive technology, whereas a label is presented to all users. In many (but not all) cases, the label and the name are the same.

    Note 2: This is unrelated to the name attribute in HTML.

navigated sequentially

    navigated in the order defined for advancing focus (from one element to the next) using a keyboard interface

non-text content

    any content that is not a sequence of characters that can be programmatically determined or where the sequence is not expressing something in human language

    Note: This includes ASCII Art (which is a pattern of characters), emoticons, leetspeak (which uses character substitution), and images representing text

normative

    required for conformance

    Note 1: One may conform in a variety of well-defined ways to this document.

    Note 2: Content identified as "informative" or "non-normative" is never required for conformance.

on a full-screen window

    on the most common sized desktop/laptop display with the viewport maximized

    Note: Since people generally keep their computers for several years, it is best not to rely on the latest desktop/laptop display resolutions but to consider the common desktop/laptop display resolutions over the course of several years when making this evaluation.

paused

    stopped by user request and not resumed until requested by user

prerecorded

    information that is not live

presentation

    rendering of the content in a form to be perceived by users

primary education level

    six year time period that begins between the ages of five and seven, possibly without any previous education

    Note: This definition is based on the International Standard Classification of Education [UNESCO (http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20/#UNESCO)].

process

    series of user actions where each action is required in order to complete an activity

    Example 1: Successful use of a series of Web pages on a shopping site requires users to view alternative products, prices and offers, select products, submit an order, provide shipping information and provide payment information.

    Example 2: An account registration page requires successful completion of a Turing test before the registration form can be accessed.

programmatically determined (programmatically determinable)

    determined by software from author-supplied data provided in a way that different user agents, including assistive technologies, can extract and present this information to users in different modalities

    Example 1: Determined in a markup language from elements and attributes that are accessed directly by commonly available assistive technology.

    Example 2: Determined from technology-specific data structures in a non-markup language and exposed to assistive technology via an accessibility API that is supported by commonly available assistive technology.

programmatically determined link context

    additional information that can be programmatically determined from relationships with a link, combined with the link text, and presented to users in different modalities

    Example: In HTML, information that is programmatically determinable from a link in English includes text that is in the same paragraph, list, or table cell as the link or in a table header cell that is associated with the table cell that contains the link.

    Note: Since screen readers interpret punctuation, they can also provide the context from the current sentence, when the focus is on a link in that sentence.

programmatically set

    set by software using methods that are supported by user agents, including assistive technologies

pure decoration

    serving only an aesthetic purpose, providing no information, and having no functionality

    Note: Text is only purely decorative if the words can be rearranged or substituted without changing their purpose.

    Example: The cover page of a dictionary has random words in very light text in the background.

real-time event

    event that a) occurs at the same time as the viewing and b) is not completely generated by the content

    Example 1: A Webcast of a live performance (occurs at the same time as the viewing and is not prerecorded).

    Example 2: An on-line auction with people bidding (occurs at the same time as the viewing).

    Example 3: Live humans interacting in a virtual world using avatars (is not completely generated by the content and occurs at the same time as the viewing).

relationships

    meaningful associations between distinct pieces of content

relative luminance

    the relative brightness of any point in a colorspace, normalized to 0 for darkest black and 1 for lightest white

    Note 1: For the sRGB colorspace, the relative luminance of a color is defined as L = 0.2126 * R + 0.7152 * G + 0.0722 * B where R, G and B are defined as:

        * if RsRGB <= 0.03928 then R = RsRGB/12.92 else R = ((RsRGB+0.055)/1.055) ^ 2.4
        * if GsRGB <= 0.03928 then G = GsRGB/12.92 else G = ((GsRGB+0.055)/1.055) ^ 2.4
        * if BsRGB <= 0.03928 then B = BsRGB/12.92 else B = ((BsRGB+0.055)/1.055) ^ 2.4

    and RsRGB, GsRGB, and BsRGB are defined as:

        * RsRGB = R8bit/255
        * GsRGB = G8bit/255
        * BsRGB = B8bit/255

    The "^" character is the exponentiation operator. (Formula taken from [sRGB (http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20/#sRGB)] and [IEC-4WD (http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20/#IEC-4WD)]).

    Note 2: Almost all systems used today to view Web content assume sRGB encoding. Unless it is known that another color space will be used to process and display the content, authors should evaluate using sRGB colorspace. If using other color spaces, see Understanding Success Criterion 1.4.3 (http://www.w3.org/TR/UNDERSTANDING-WCAG20/visual-audio-contrast-contrast.html).

    Note 3: If dithering occurs after delivery, then the source color value is used. For colors that are dithered at the source, the average values of the colors that are dithered should be used (average R, average G, and average B).

    Note 4: Tools are available that automatically do the calculations when testing contrast and flash.

    Note 5:  A MathML version of the relative luminance definition (http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20/relative-luminance.xml) is available.

relied upon (technologies that are)

    the content would not conform if that technology is turned off or is not supported

role

    text or number by which software can identify the function of a component within Web content

    Example: A number that indicates whether an image functions as a hyperlink, command button, or check box.

same functionality

    same result when used

    Example: A submit "search" button on one Web page and a "find" button on another Web page may both have a field to enter a term and list topics in the Web site related to the term submitted. In this case, they would have the same functionality but would not be labeled consistently.

same relative order

    same position relative to other items

    Note: Items are considered to be in the same relative order even if other items are inserted or removed from the original order. For example, expanding navigation menus may insert an additional level of detail or a secondary navigation section may be inserted into the reading order.

satisfies a success criterion

    the success criterion does not evaluate to 'false' when applied to the page

section

    A self-contained portion of written content that deals with one or more related topics or thoughts

    Note: A section may consist of one or more paragraphs and include graphics, tables, lists and sub-sections.

set of Web pages

    collection of Web pages that share a common purpose and that are created by the same author, group or organization

    Note: Different language versions would be considered different sets of Web pages.

sign language

    a language using combinations of movements of the hands and arms, facial expressions, or body positions to convey meaning

sign language interpretation

    translation of one language, generally a spoken language, into a sign language

    Note:  True sign languages are independent languages that are unrelated to the spoken language(s) of the same country or region.

specific sensory experience

    a sensory experience that is not purely decorative and does not primarily convey important information or perform a function

    Example:  Examples include a performance of a flute solo, works of visual art etc.

structure

       1. *

          The way the parts of a Web page are organized in relation to each other; and
       2. *

          The way a collection of Web pages is organized

supplemental content

    additional content that illustrates or clarifies the primary content

    Example 1:  An audio version of a Web page.

    Example 2:  An illustration of a complex process.

    Example 3:  A paragraph summarizing the major outcomes and recommendations made in a research study.

synchronized media

    audio or video synchronized with another format for presenting information and/or with time-based interactive components, unless the media is a media alternative for text that is clearly labeled as such

technology (Web content)

    mechanism for encoding instructions to be rendered, played or executed by user agents

    Note 1: As used in these guidelines "Web Technology" and the word "technology" (when used alone) both refer to Web Content Technologies.

    Note 2: Web content technologies may include markup languages, data formats, or programming languages that authors may use alone or in combination to create end-user experiences that range from static Web pages to synchronized media presentations to dynamic Web applications.

    Example: Some common examples of Web content technologies include HTML, CSS, SVG, PNG, PDF, Flash, and JavaScript.

text

    sequence of characters that can be programmatically determined, where the sequence is expressing something in human language

text alternative

    Text that is programmatically associated with non-text content or referred to from text that is programmatically associated with non-text content. Programmatically associated text is text whose location can be programmatically determined from the non-text content.

    Example: An image of a chart is described in text in the paragraph after the chart. The short text alternative for the chart indicates that a description follows.

    Note: Refer to Understanding Text Alternatives (http://www.w3.org/TR/UNDERSTANDING-WCAG20/conformance.html#uc-text-alternatives-head) for more information.

used in an unusual or restricted way

    words used in such a way that requires users to know exactly which definition to apply in order to understand the content correctly

    Example: The term "gig" means something different if it occurs in a discussion of music concerts than it does in article about computer hard drive space, but the appropriate definition can be determined from context. By contrast, the word "text" is used in a very specific way in WCAG 2.0, so a definition is supplied in the glossary.

user agent

    any software that retrieves and presents Web content for users

    Example: Web browsers, media players, plug-ins, and other programs — including assistive technologies — that help in retrieving, rendering, and interacting with Web content.

user-controllable

    data that is intended to be accessed by users

    Note: This does not refer to such things as Internet logs and search engine monitoring data.

    Example:  Name and address fields for a user's account.

user interface component

    a part of the content that is perceived by users as a single control for a distinct function

    Note 1: Multiple user interface components may be implemented as a single programmatic element. Components here is not tied to programming techniques, but rather to what the user perceives as separate controls.

    Note 2: User interface components include form elements and links as well as components generated by scripts.

    Example: An applet has a "control" that can be used to move through content by line or page or random access. Since each of these would need to have a name and be settable independently, they would each be a "user interface component."

video

    the technology of moving or sequenced pictures or images

    Note: Video can be made up of animated or photographic images, or both.

video-only

    a time-based presentation that contains only video (no audio and no interaction)

viewport

    object in which the user agent presents content

    Note 1: The user agent presents content through one or more viewports. Viewports include windows, frames, loudspeakers, and virtual magnifying glasses. A viewport may contain another viewport (e.g., nested frames). Interface components created by the user agent such as prompts, menus, and alerts are not viewports.

    Note 2: This definition is based on User Agent Accessibility Guidelines 1.0 Glossary (http://www.w3.org/TR/WAI-USERAGENT/glossary.html).

visually customized

    the font, size, color, and background can be set

Web page

    a non-embedded resource obtained from a single URI using HTTP plus any other resources that are used in the rendering or intended to be rendered together with it by a user agent

    Note 1: Although any "other resources" would be rendered together with the primary resource, they would not necessarily be rendered simultaneously with each other.

    Note 2: For the purposes of conformance with these guidelines, a resource must be "non-embedded" within the scope of conformance to be considered a Web page.

    Example 1: A Web resource including all embedded images and media.

    Example 2: A Web mail program built using Asynchronous JavaScript and XML (AJAX). The program lives entirely at http://example.com/mail, but includes an inbox, a contacts area and a calendar. Links or buttons are provided that cause the inbox, contacts, or calendar to display, but do not change the URI of the page as a whole.

    Example 3: A customizable portal site, where users can choose content to display from a set of different content modules.

    Example 4: When you enter "http://shopping.example.com/" in your browser, you enter a movie-like interactive shopping environment where you visually move around in a store dragging products off of the shelves around you and into a visual shopping cart in front of you. Clicking on a product causes it to be demonstrated with a specification sheet floating alongside. This might be a single-page Web site or just one page within a Web site.
