Accessibility Compliance Reference

Introduction

All of the Ignite UI for jQuery® controls and components comply with Section 508, Subpart 1194.22 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973. The table below contains the specific rules of Subpart 1194.22 that pertain to the control. Also detailed is how the igLayoutManager control complies with each rule.

To meet the requirements for each accessibility rule, in some cases, you may need to interact with the control by setting a specific option, but, in other cases, the control does the work for you.

Accessibility compliance reference chart

The following table summarizes the accessibility compliance rules for the igLayoutManager control.

Rules Rule Text How We Comply
(c)* Web pages shall be designed so that all information conveyed with color is also available without color, for example from context or markup. The igLayoutManager control does not depend on color.
(j) Pages shall be designed to avoid causing the screen to flicker with a frequency greater than 2 Hz and lower than 55 Hz. The igLayoutManager control does not itself contribute to causing the screen to flicker with a frequency greater than 2 Hz and lower than 55 Hz. (There are no BLINK or MARQUEE elements as part of the control.)
