Definition of Roles

Contrast with group, which semantically groups its descendants in a named container.

A generic can provide a limited number of accessible states and properties for its descendants, such as aria-live attributes. This differentiates it from the presentation role.

The generic role is intended for implementors of User Agents. Authors SHOULD NOT use this role in content.

A triage of global properties is pending. This will reduce the number of inherited states and properties in the characteristics table below. For details, see issue #999.

    Definitions of States and Properties (all aria-* attributes)

    User agents MUST NOT expose the aria-roledescription property if any of the following conditions exist:

    1. The element to which aria-roledescription is applied does not have a valid WAI-ARIA role or does not have an implicit WAI-ARIA role semantic.
      2. +
    2. The element to which aria-roledescription is applied has an explicit or implicit WAI-ARIA role where aria-roledescription is prohibited.
    3. The value of aria-roledescription is empty or contains only whitespace characters.

    Assistive technologies SHOULD use the value of aria-roledescription when presenting the role of an element, but SHOULD NOT change other functionality based on the role of an element that has a value for aria-roledescription. For example, an assistive technology that provides functions for navigating to the next region or button SHOULD allow those functions to navigate to regions and buttons that have an aria-roledescription.
