Details

Rule ID Role 7
Definition aside element must only have role semantics of complementary (default do not set), note, region, search or presentation. NOTE: Deprecated in favor of HTML 3 a more general rule on role restrictions based on ARIA in HTML specification.
Purpose
  • The aside element has role restrictions as part of its definition in the W3C HTML5 Specification.
  • The aside element is used for tangentially related content to main content of the page and are often represented as sidebars in printed typography.
  • Tangentially related content should be identified as a role="complementary", role="search" or role of role="note".
  • The difference between complementary and search roles and the note role is that complementary and search are landmark roles and support and note is not a landmark role.
  • The search role should be used if the content of the aside element are form controls or widgets used for searching the website content.

Techniques
  • If the content of the aside element is used for tangentially related content to main content of the page use role="complementary" to make the content part of the landmark navigation of the page.
  • If the content of the aside element is used for website content search form controls use role="search" to identify the search semantics and make the content part of the landmark navigation of the page.
  • If the content of the aside element is used for tangentially related content to main content of the page use role="note". The note role is not part of the landmark navigation of the page and therefore is less commonly used.
  • If the content of the aside element is used as a sub-section of another landmark use role="region" with an accessible name to identify the sub-section.
  • If the content of the aside element is used for any other purpose than for tangentially related content to main content use role="presentation" to remove the aside semantics.

Implementation Score Definitions

  • The implementation score is based on the rule results across all pages and ranges from 0 to 100.
  • '-' means there were no rule results for that group (e.g. rules were not applicable).
  • The following messages give a general idea of the overall implementation of the rules for a website.
Abbrev Score Status Description
C 100 Complete Complete means all rules have passed. There were either no manual checks or all manual checks have been resolved.
R 0 Required Manual Checks
  • Manual checks are required to verify accessibility. Markup has been identified that needs to be reviewed to determine if accessibility requirements have been met.
  • Start with the website and page level manual checks since they affect website and page navigation and identification of content and then start on the element level manual checks.
AC
AC-R 		95-99 Almost Complete
  • Almost Complete means that you seem to understand the accessibility requirements of the rules, and are close to fully implementing their requirements on all pages within the website.
  • "-R" means there are required Manual Checks. Markup has been identified that needs to be reviewed to determine if accessibility requirements have been met.
PI
PI-R 		50-94 Partial Implementation
  • Partial Implementation means that you may understand at least some of the accessibility requirements.
  • "-R" means there are required Manual Checks. Markup has been identified that needs to be reviewed to determine if accessibility requirements have been met.
  • Please re-read the accessibility requirement and review the techniques before trying to improve the accessibility.
NI
NI-R 		0-50 Not Implemented
  • Incomplete means that you do not understand the accessibility requirements of the rules or did not consider accessibility in the design of the website.
  • "-R" means there are required Manual Checks. Markup has been identified that needs to be reviewed to determine if accessibility requirements have been met.
  • Please read the accessibility requirements and review the techniques before trying to improve the accessibility.
na - Not Applicable No markup was found that identifed a known or possible accessibility issue.

Note: Future versions of FAE will allow you to mark manual checks as, pass, fail or not applicable.

Implementation Score Computation

Implementation Score = P / (P + F + MC)

Each variable represents the number of element level results for a particular rule, where:

  • P = elements that passed
  • F = elements that failed
  • MC = elements that require a manual check

The score ranges in value from 0 to 100, that is from no implementation to all accessibility requirements met. In the future, FAE will allow you to change manual checks to pass, fail or not applicable, and will recompute the Implementation Score based on the updated manual checking results.

Note: When a manual check is changed to not applicable that element result is removed from the implementation score computation.

Implementation Score Combinations

Implementation scores are rule-based and are computed for the following combinations:

Pages Rules Calculation
1 1 Element level results determine the implementation score for a rule on a specific page.
1 All The implementation score for a page is the average of all implementation scores for all rules on the page, with all rules being equally weighted.
All 1 The implementation score for a rule across all the pages in a website is based on the aggregation of all element results for the rule across all pages.
All All The implementation score for a website is the average of the website rule implementation scores.

Example Rule Implementation Scores on Individual Page

Description Pass Fail Manual Check Implementation Score
A rule with scope of element, like "Image must have alt text". 8 2 0 80
A rule with scope of page like "Page must have main landmark". 0 1 0 0
A rule with scope of element with elment results of pass, fail and manual checks that may occur for the color contrast rule. 134 29 37 67

Example Rule Implementation Score for All Pages in a Website

This is a hypothetical example for a website

Page results for Rule X Pass Fail Manual Check Implementation Score
Page 1 element results for rule X. 23 12 4 59
Page 2 element results for rule X. 12 4 0 75
Page 3 element results for rule X. 45 0 0 100
Website element results for Rule X 80 16 4 80
