Part 1194.21, Software Applications and Operating Systems

Part 1194.21A, Executing functions from keyboard

Web pages built with Iron Speed Designer are compliant since a user can navigate them and access their functionality without using a mouse, i.e., navigate using "tab", "enter", and "up/down key press".

Part 1194.21B, Applications should not disable accessibility features if available

Not applicable.

Part 1194.21C, Well-defined indication of on-screen focus

The web browser has this functionality already (I.e., HTML elements in focus are highlighted with a "dashed box outline").

Part 1194.21D, Interface elements must be identifiable

Button and menu text have "alt" tags to indicate action of these interface elements.

Part 1194.21E, Consistent use/meaning of bitmap images to identify controls, status indicators, and other programmatic elements

Not applicable.

Part 1194.21F, Textual information shall be provided through operating system functions for displaying text

Not applicable.

Not applicable.

Part 1194.21H, Non-animated alternative to any animation used

Not applicable.

Part 1194.21I, Color coding shall not be used as the only means of conveying information

Tables built with Iron Speed Designer use color-highlighting to indicate selection.  Applications comply with Part 1194.22C and most page styles have sufficient contrast as viewed from a black-and-white monitor.

Part 1194.21J, When a product permits a user to adjust color and contrast settings, a variety of color selections capable of producing a range of contrast levels shall be provided

Developers can adjust their applications via the stylesheets to their tastes.

Part 1194.21K, Software should not use flashing or blinking text/objects

Not applicable.

Part 1194.21L, When electronic forms are used, they should be accessible to people using assistive technology

Compliance with Part 1194.22N fulfills this requirement.
