make sure mail demo is accessible

[Becky Gibson]

Need to make sure that the mail demo is accessible so we can demonstrate how to create accessible apps with dojo

[Becky Gibson]

(In [10473]) refs #4412; updated the mail demo so save and cancel buttons on new message tab have an action. For send just display a dialog with progress bar (probably not the best use of dialog) and for cancel close message tab.

[Becky Gibson]

(In [10493]) refs #4412 work on mail demo a11y; Hide fetch mail progress bar when not in use so it is not in the tab order. Add application role to body tag. Add optionsTitle to getMail combobutton

[Becky Gibson]

(In [10564]) refs #4412. Move RTE part before send and cancel buttons in New Message so that tab order is correct.

[Becky Gibson]

(In [10761]) refs #4412 Move the bottom content pane below the tab container now that 4667 has been fixed. This allows the source code order to match the presentation order for a11y.

[Adam Peller]

will migrate to dojox.grid, see #3813

[Becky Gibson]

This depends upon #3813

[Becky Gibson]

now that the mail demo has been updated to use the grid, this ticket depends upon #7228

[Becky Gibson]

(In [15952]) refs #4412 improvements to mail demo a11y. Change height of toolbar to ems from px so toolbar is not clipped when font size is enlarged. Added role=application on body tag to let the screen reader know this is an application. Add ARIA live region information to message pane so screen reader will speak previewed message.

Note to self: It's unclear why the toolbar has any height specified at all. It shouldn't. I added it in [10319] but not sure why. Maybe to work around a safari bug?

[bill]

(In [15973]) Actually height setting on Toolbar etc. shouldn't be needed at all; they should size correctly automatically. Refs #4412.

[Becky Gibson]

depends on grid - moving to future

[Becky Gibson]

(In [20942]) refs #4412 minor update to the preview mail pane to make it more accessible - add tabindex=0 and change role to document

[Chris Mitchell]

reassign due to inactive committer. please triage accordingly.

[bill]

I don't know, it's Becky's ticket.

Because we get so many tickets, we often need to return them to the initial reporter for more information. If that person does not reply within 14 days, the ticket will automatically be closed, and that has happened in this case. If you still are interested in pursuing this issue, feel free to add a comment with the requested information and we will be happy to reopen the ticket if it is still valid. Thanks!
