Portal
|
-
Redesigned the portal header
to use list items for all links.
-
Rewrote the portal menu
to use list items, which work better with screen readers than the
older nested tables. List items make it easier for users to navigate
the system.
-
Modified pagelet icons
for minimize, maximize, help, and refresh functions to be usable through
the keyboard. Previous releases required the use of a mouse.

PeopleSoft Internet
Architecture (PIA)
|
-
Added page headers to all
PIA pages, as follows:
-
<H1> tag for the page
title.
-
<H2>
tag for group boxes, grids, and scroll areas at level 0, using their
titles.
-
<H3> tag for group boxes,
grids, and scroll ares at level 1, using their titles.
-
<H4> tag for group boxes,
grids, and scroll ares at level 2, using their titles.
-
<H5> tag for group boxes,
grids, and scroll ares at level 3, using their titles.
Note:
All scroll areas and
grids must have titles in order for some page headers to be generated.
See Assigning Titles and Summaries for Grids and Scroll Areas.
-
Removed fieldset-legend
tags from grid and scroll areas and replaced them with headers.
-
Improved grid areas by
providing row and column header tags for every cell in a grid. These
tags make it easier for users to navigate grids in edit mode.
-
Provided a title for the Expand/Collapse icon.
-
Provided better and more
usable error reporting on the PIA pages and the sign-on page.
-
Added the ISO Language
attribute to all pages (added the %LanguageISO Meta-HTML variable).
-
Provided a better indicator
on the current focus control. This indicator helps visually impaired
users see where the cursor is focused on the screen.
-
Made required fields readable
by screen readers. Screen readers now read “* (Star) required field”
before required fields.
-
Updated the search results
table so that screen readers read it correctly, and added a row counter
to the summary table.
