Term of the day

ARIA States

ARIA states are special attributes added to web page elements that describe the current condition of an element, such as whether a checkbox is checked or a menu is expanded. These conditions typically change as a user interacts with the page, and they help assistive technologies like screen readers announce what is happening. They are part of WAI-ARIA, a set of roles and attributes developed by the W3C to make rich, interactive web content more accessible.
