Name of Product: Oracle WebCenter Portal 11g R1 (11.1.1.7.0)

Last Updated: 23-Mar-2013

This VPAT applies to only version 11.1.1.7.0. It does not apply to any versions of Oracle WebCenter Portal after this.
This VPAT has been superseded by Oracle WebCenter Portal 11g R1 (11.1.1.8.0)

Oracle WebCenter Portal (formerly WebCenter Suite) belongs to the "Portal" pillar within the overall WebCenter umbrella. WebCenter Portal is a portal and composite applications solution that delivers intuitive user experiences for the enterprise that are seamlessly integrated with your enterprise applications.WebCenter Portal enables enterprises to evolve their extranet sites and partner portals, provide a more dynamic customer service experience, and provide a more productive environment for employees while leveraging IT assets that are already in place. This VPAT covers Spaces as well, since Spaces is now considered a "feature" of WebCenter Portal.

WebCenter Portal supports the accessibility mode for Screen Reader, and it also supports the accessibility profiles for Large Fonts and High Contrast.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The accessibility mode for a custom WebCenter Portal application can be set through the WebCenter General Settings service.  This service contains values that you can access either directly from the JSF page(s) in your WebCenter Portal application or indirectly through an API.  The valid values to use with the accessibility-mode setting in the trinidad-config.xml file are default, inaccessible, or screenReader.

To use the General Settings service directly from your application, use Expression Language in your JSF pages to access the generalSettings managed bean.  The style is based on the java.util.Timezone, and the pattern is based on java.text.SimpleDateFormat.  When you add generalSettings as the value attribute of an ADF component, for example af:activeOutputText, you can open the Expression Builder, then navigate to JSF Managed Beans > generalSettings to view the preference values for the bean.  For details, here's the link to the product documentation:http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23943_01/webcenter.1111/e10148/jpsdg_svc_intro.htm#CEGCIECI

Large Fonts and High Contrast Support may be enabled in a custom WebCenter Portal application via the standard methods available in the operating system, or the browser.  In addition, the accessiblitiy-profile may be set to large-fonts in the trinidad-config.xml file.  For details, here's the link to the product documentation: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23943_01/web.1111/b31973/ap_config.htm#sthref418

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

To configure accessibility mode in WebCenter Portal: Spaces, navigate to the Preferences dialog in Spaces.  Click "General" to access General Preferences. In the Accessibility Settings you can select the options for Screen Reader, High Contrast colors and Large fonts. The default setting is that none of these options are checked. In this setting, accessibility-centric capabilities do not get enabled. Check "I use a screen reader" mode to enable keyboard-centric accessibility capabilities for sighted users with non-visual impairments around mouse usage. Also color contrasts are handled in this mode. Pick "Enable Screen Reader" in the case of  visually challenged users.This enables optimizations for use with Screen Reader software. Here's the link to the product documentation: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23943_01/webcenter.1111/e10149/preferences.htm#CCAIJECF Check "I use high contrast colors" to change colors in accordance with the client operating system settings.  Check "I use large fonts" to show the text on Spaces in a larger font.

WebCenter Portal: Spaces does not support modification of the trinidad-config.xml file.

The information below describes this product's ability to support the applicable U.S. Section 508 standards and the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 1.0 Double-A Guidelines, subject to Oracle's interpretation of those standards and the remarks in this document.

Section 1194.21 Software Applications and Operating Systems

Criteria
Supporting Features
Remarks (e.g., definition, equivalent facilitation, scope of support provided)
1194.21(a) When software is designed to run on a system that has a keyboard, product functions shall be executable from a keyboard where the function itself or the result of performing a function can be discerned textually. Product has been developed to conform to this standard subject to the remarks on the right.

The product was tested for the ability to perform functions using the keyboard only. Access keys and navigation flows were verified, ensuring that the focus moves logically. View components meet synthesized control requirements.

Observations:

  1. In the Default mode (i.e. Screen Reader OFF), not able to keyboard navigate out of a list using Shift-Tab. Bug 10101825.
  2. When testing Ensemble using Keyboard only, users cannot get the cursor to the General section of the node.
    The workaround is NOT to tab to the arrow icon located in front of the resource name before trying to navigate through the tree. In Chrome, you want to stop tabbing when you see a resource name highlighted. In IE, you'll see a dotted rectangle drawn around the entire panel holding the resource tree. At that point, you should be able to use arrow keys to move through the tree and into sub-nodes as necessary. Bug 13040756.
  3. In ScreenReader mode, the tree control nodes are not being announced properly. They are announced only as "expand" link or "collapse" link. Bug 8272268.
  4. Lost focus if using keyboard only in Edit Notes.  (Bug 15937337 )
  5.  Lost focus in import function. (Bug 15987106 )         
  6.  In the Default mode (i.e. Screen Reader OFF), not able to keyboard navigate out of a list using Shift-Tab. (Bug 10101825)
  7. Buttons not activated in pop-up window if using keyboard.  (Bug 15931538)
