Background

Project Lead: Laurent Goderre(@LaurentGoderre)

Content from [[here | http://wet-boew.github.com/wet-boew/demos/datepicker/datepicker-eng.html ]] should be put below.  Please add content and include examples below.

Purpose

The HTML5 progress allows to display the progress of a task. Because some browsers do not support this functionality natively, this polyfill emulates the same functionality using generic HTML and WAI-ARIA.

Rationale

Browsers that do not support the progress element natively ignore the progress bar and therefore, nothing is displayed and its content is not exposed to assistive technologies. This polyfill ensures that the progress is visually conveyed through a progress bar and exposed to assistive technologies by adding ARIA.

Implementation

To use the polyfill, a standard progress element must be used. In cases where browser don't support the progress element, the polyfill is automatically loaded.
