(L) Scripts
Scripts
When web pages utilize scripting languages to display content, or to create interface elements, the information provided by the script shall be identified with functional text that can be read by assistive technology.
JavaScript
You should generally stay away from using scripts (most notably JavaScript) to generate important content. If you decide to do so, you should at the very least make the content accessible generated by the script. A more stringent requirement is to turn off JavaScript in your browser, and see if your web site retains its core meaning and navigational elements.
Keep in mind that JavaScript should enhanced content and not replace it. Which is why all the pages on Cal State L.A. should be able to function normally if scripting is turned off. Go to the Manual Check page for ways to test for JavaScript accessibility.
