Accessibility/Comparisons

At the heart of Gecko's accessibility architecture are the cross-platform nsIAccessible interfaces.

The goal is that these interfaces be a cross-platform representation of the abilities of the OS-specific implementations.

Below you'll find comparisons of the API features of every platform, side by side.

• Comparison of roles
• Comparison of states
• Comparison of events/notifications
