<p>There are a few simple things you should do to make your AutoComplete implementation more screenreader accessible.</p>
<h2>Label your input field</h2>
<p>First, provide a <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/interact/forms.html#h-17.9">label element</a> for your input field. Within this label, you can include a span that is styled via CSS to be displayed offscreen with helpful text that screenreaders will read aloud.</p>
<h2>Insert the screenreader label text dynamically</h2>
<p>If you insert the span element that holds the screenreader text into the label dynamically at runtime, most screenreaders will read it aloud each time only when the user focuses on the input for a new AutoComplete interaction, instead of during regular page browsing.</p>
<h2>Enable the <code>typeAhead</code> feature</h2>
<p>By setting your AutoComplete's <code>typeAhead</code> property to true, screenreaders (in focus mode) will read aloud each suggestion as the user navigates them with the up and down arrow keys.</p>
<h2>Disable the <code>autoHighlight</code> feature</h2>
<p>By default, AutoComplete's <code>autoHighlight</code> property is enabled, which may add confusion when screenreaders read aloud the first suggestion when it is autohighlighted. To avoid this scenario, disable the <code>autoHighlight</code> feature.</p>
<h2 class="first">Sample Code</h2>
<p>Markup:</p>
<textarea name="code" class="HTML" cols="60" rows="1">
<div id="myAutoComplete">
<label id="myInputLabel" for="myInput">Enter a state:</label> <input id="myInput" type="text">
<div id="myContainer"></div>
</div>
</textarea>
<p>JavaScript:</p>
<textarea name="code" class="JScript" cols="60" rows="1">
YAHOO.example.Accessibility = function() {
// Set up DataSource and AutoComplete instances
var oDS = new YAHOO.util.LocalDataSource(YAHOO.example.Data.arrayStates, {responseSchema: {fields : ["state"]}});
var oAC = new YAHOO.widget.AutoComplete("myInput", "myContainer", oDS);
// Set up span element with screenreader text
var elLabel = YAHOO.util.Dom.get("myInputLabel"),
origLabel = elLabel.innerHTML,
screenreaderLabel = '<span style="position:absolute;left:-999em;">Use the arrow keys to navigate suggestions.</span>';
// Insert the screenreader text whenever user starts an AutoComplete interaction
oAC.textboxFocusEvent.subscribe(function(){elLabel.innerHTML += screenreaderLabel;});
oAC.textboxBlurEvent.subscribe(function(){elLabel.innerHTML = origLabel;});
// The typeAhead feature must also be set to true for screenreader support
oAC.typeAhead = true;
// Turn off autoHighlight for less confusion
oAC.autoHighlight = false;
return {
oDS: oDS,
oAC: oAC
};
}();
</textarea>
