JavaScript widget testing
This page is for testing the accessibility of various JavaScript widget sets. You can post comments about the tests you do on this page, or directly on the dw_accessibility post.

jQuery
Each one of these pages has a functionality which can be tested. For visual users using the page's default style, the core functionality is in the middle of the page. Screen reader users, be aware that the functionality to test is under a H4-level header labeled "Functional demo".
You should also try the alternate tests. These are in the right-hand column under a H4-level headernamed "Examples". For example, the Accordion test has examples labeled "Default functionality," "Fill space," "No auto height," "Collapse content," "Open on mouseover," "Customize icons," and "Sortable."
Write about what works for you with these tests and what doesn't. Are they meaningful given your accessibility needs? Are they helpful? Are they usable? Difficult or intuitive?
Accordion
The accordion test has four expandable and collapsible sections filled with blocks of text (in this case, test blocks of Latin prose).
Results
Auto complete
The auto complete test provides a text box which should offer suggestions as you type. There's a limited set of words available in this test, but "Java", "JavaScript",, and "ColdFusion" all appear to be available.

Button
These are just the buttons provided in this widget set. Do they work for you? Can you select them intuitively?

Date picker
This widget should allow you to pick a date off a little graphical calendar when you focus in the input field.

Dialog
This test gives you what looks like a standard webpage (with some Latin text and a simple form), but it also includes a dialog box entitled "Basic dialog". That dialog box should be closable, movable, resizable, and should include the readable text, "_This is the default dialog which is useful for displaying information. The dialog window can be moved, resized and closed with the 'x' icon._".
Results
Progress bar
This test shows a purely-visual progress bar showing whether or not a process is complete. There are variant versions of the progress bar available, one animated, the other resizable.
