I need to make a Tapestry 5.4 site 508 compliant. I've looked thru the requirements and what HTML is generated now and I don't see anything that looks to difficult but I'd like to get Tapestry to do most/all the work.
My plan is to write mixins to handle thinks like access keys. For example <t:pagelink page="search"/> Would look in the message catalog for search-title=Do Search search-text=Search search-accesskey=s and create <t:pagelink page="search" accesskey="s" title="Do Search"><span class="accesskey">S</span>earch<t:pagelink> I'm also going to create a visitor to patch up things like grid link sort titles. Has anyone else built a 508 Tapestry site? If so any suggestions Lastly some things might be better (like grid sort link titles) if they were included in the base code. Would someone be willing to accept patches and if so should they be enabled all the time or should 508 be a feature you need to turn on? Thanks Barry
