eliminated.
Note
The appearance of elements receiving focus or being hovered over with a pointing device should be changed
(for example, highlighted) to provide visual feedback to the user (such as changed background or border color). Flash
content should also provide highly visible focus indication.
Alternate texts, labels, and names should be shared among components with the same functionality.
An optional sign language version provided for all information required to use the content can improve
accessibility for people who are deaf or have cognitive disabilities. It can be either a multimedia avatar using a
technology such as Flash or a video clip of an animated or real sign language interpreter (Figure 10-9 ).
