Link targets need to be focusable to work with VoiceOver.
Making <main> focusable causes some side-effects, like making the TAB
key go to the beginning of <main> instead of the element after the
currently-clicked region.
Also removes the annoying outline around "main" in some non-mainstream
browsers, without having to add extra CSS.
IBM Equal Access A11y Checker caught an <aside> without a label. Figured
this was a good opportunity to instead use the site description.
While I was at it, I expanded said site description and used it
properly.
The WCAG "label in name" SC requires visible labels to contain
accessible names, preferably by having accessible names start with
visible labels. This commit makes footnote backlinks display as a
hyperlink reading "Back" to meet this SC.
- We don't want autocomplete on the webmention form, since users should
not be entering a link multiple times.
- Not all browsers support the "required" HTML5 attribute, so add the
"aria-required" HTML attribute too.
- Display reply content in webmentions, when it's available
- Truncate titles and redundant content from webmentions
- Add note on a11y issues regarding badly-formatted webmentions from
brid.gy's mastodon integration.
- Add a11y metadata to transcribed images to communicate the presence of
a transcript
- Fix relative urls in navigation: make them absolute urls, so that the
parsed navigation elements have the correct destinations.
This also switches image transcripts from a section with a heading to a
div with an ARIA label. That should reduce duplication between the
<summary> content and the heading while still being semantically sound.
- Switch an abs link to a relative one
- Account for a site move
- Manually correct a couple dead links to point to the Wayback Machine
- Automatically switch some webmention links to the Wayback Machine
The RSS feeds use escaped HTML instead of XHTML, which improves
compatibility with certain feed readers (e.g. Microsoft Outlook).
Mention that Outlook uses its own weird engine for feed contents in my
web best practices article.
