2.2.1 What Does High Contrast Mode Do?

Enabling high contrast mode results in the following behavior:

  • Application Express Websheet runtime.

    Websheet application replace CSS-based image links with text links. These text links are only created for images where the source image is transparent and the CSS background property is used in its place.
