The ARIA specification provides a set of accessibility roles as the main indicator of control's type. These roles support platform accessibility APIs. By assigning a valid ARIA role on an element, as defined in the ARIA specification, assistive technologies leverage the role's semantics to provide consistent object interaction and presentation. <!-- This is where the code snippet is injected --> <div id="locSnippet"></div> ### What to do * Remove any `role` attributes from table structure elements (`<tr>`, `<th>`, `<td>`) within any container with a role of `"table"`, `"grid"`, or `"treegrid"`. Code example of a table with a valid `role="grid"` and appropriate table structures: ``` <div id="caption" class="caption">Table caption</div> <table role="grid" aria-labelledby="caption" class="gridCls"> <thead> <tr> <th>Head 1</th><th>Head 2</th> </tr> </thead> <tbody> <tr> <td>Cell 1</td><td>Cell 2</td> </tr> </tbody> </table> ``` </script></mark-down> <!-- End main panel --> <!-- This is where the rule id is injected --> <div id="ruleInfo"></div> </div> <div class="bx--col-sm-4 bx--col-md-3 bx--col-lg-4 toolSide"> <!-- Start side panel --> <mark-down><script type="text/plain"> ### About this requirement * [IBM 4.1.2 Name, Role, Value](https://www.ibm.com/able/requirements/requirements/#4_1_2) * [ARIA specification](https://www.w3.org/TR/wai-aria-1.2/) ### Who does this affect? * People using a screen reader, including blind, low vision, and neurodivergent people * People with dexterity impairments using voice control </script></mark-down> <!-- End side panel --> </div> </div> </div> </body> </html>
