I'm working on FLUID-3728, which aims to improve the accessibility of the demo
portal through proper ARIA, etc. I'm struggling with the current affordance for
switching between the colourized code view and the plain text view on the right
side of the pages. I'm hoping the community can help me with some input.
As an example, you can look at
http://build.fluidproject.org/infusion/demos/reorderer/gridReorderer/demo.html
(Note: The portal on this nightly build has not yet been modified with any
improvements, so current ARIA and keyboard interactions are not yet "right.")
On the right side of the page are some tabs, one for each of the files used in
the demo (html, css, js). Below the tabs (visually "inside" the tab) are two
pieces of text: "Code View" and "Plain Text." Clicking on either of these
pieces of text with the mouse will switch the display below it between the
colourized version and the plain text version.
I'm trying to figure out what would be the proper ARIA role and keyboard
interaction for these two options. Are they radio buttons? A toggle button?
(Does ARIA even have a specific role for toggle buttons?) Are they tabs (within
a tab)? just plain links that activate something?
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
