Thanks for the link. Unfortunately I'm particularly interested in how plugins are inserted into the heirarchy (if they are), and especially how this is implemented for OOP plugins (probably wrapping and remoting). I'll investigate.

If anyone on this list is has done or is currently implementing this I'd like to chat. Note: I'll likely be pinging Jonas at Google soon too; note: http://sites.google.com/a/chromium.org/dev/developers/design-documents/accessibility#TOC-Synchronous-IPC-for-Accessibility

cheers,
David

Hi Christiaan,

Thanks for your reply. I was hoping this would be a good way to start a discussion about OOP plugin accessibility but maybe this list isn't the right place?

I probably didn't look at the right docs... can you point me to the one with all the answers? :)

cheers,
David


<http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/Accessibility/cocoaAXOverview/cocoaAXOverview.html> explains how accessibility is implemented in Cocoa. From that it should be clear that "safari" or "plugin" are totally irrelevant to the discussion. It only matters stuff is inserted in the hierarchy, which is more a question of what they do then what they are.

Hi all.

Does Safari have any plugin accessibility support?

Yes.


If so, what about for out of process plugins?

cheers,
David


No.

If the answers aren't very useful that's because you're asking the wrong questions (just a friendly advice, the docs have all the answers).
