In an effort to make content more accessible to users with disabilities and more compatible with assistive technology, such as screen readers, Ariba typically provides these accessibility features in its products:

  • Navigational and informational images (such as page controls or icons) provided by Ariba use alt or title attributes to display a descriptive string when you move the cursor over them or navigate to them using the Tab key. Ariba uses alt and title attributes on many page elements.
  • The label tag is used to explicitly associate label strings with their respective input fields.
  • Row and column headings in data tables provided by Ariba use <th> tags and the scope attribute to associate row and column data with the corresponding heading.
  • When color is used to communicate information, as in a red error message, other methods are also used. For example, error messages formatted using a bold red font are also preceded by an alt-tagged warning icon or use the term "error" in the message text.
  • When framesets are used, the frames are titled to facilitate their identification and navigation.
  • You can use the keyboard to tab through the product interfaces and address or select the control or element that has the current focus.
