Clarification on aria-sort="none" #1192
Comments
Related: w3c/aria#724 and w3c/aria#582 Good would be:

@JAWS-test It would be great if JAWS could support it. |
@kolaps33 I am not from Freedom Scientific, I just work with JAWS on a daily basis. Therefore, I can't tell you when problems in JAWS will be fixed. |

Looking for some clarification on the usage of
aria-sort="none"
.I have a data table with a number of columns. Some of the columns are sortable, some are not sortable. For the column that is sortable and being sorted on, I add
aria-sort="[ascending|descending]
appropriately.For the columns that are sortable but not being sorted on, should I add
aria-sort="none"
? Or should I omitaria-sort
altogether?The Data Grid Example page (https://www.w3.org/TR/wai-aria-practices/examples/grid/dataGrids.html) seems to imply that
aria-sort="none"
should be added "when a column is sortable but not sorted."On the other hand, the W3C spec (https://www.w3.org/WAI/PF/aria/states_and_properties) states that each data table should only apply
aria-sort
to a single header at any given point in time.Moreover, no SR (as far as I can tell) announces anything differently if a cell has
aria-sort="none"
vs. omitsaria-sort
.Looking for some clarificiation here... thanks.
