Pseudo elements announced #86

Closed vavroom closed 2 weeks ago

◦ Pseudo-elements are announced for Jaws/Chrome and VO/Safari. The decorative quote mark for each testimonial and the em dash on each side of the testimonial author’s name

@digilou Just tested this - the quote and the emdash around the names are announced. I think that makes for a weird experience.

digilou commented 3 weeks ago

@vavroom That is VERY interesting. Pseudo elements didn't work that way before, which meant adding real content there was a problem. Agreed on the weird experience!

Thoughts:

I may need to resort to a background image rather than this ::before hack, if you like the faded quote mark.
Emdashes are purely decorative... should we just eliminate them altogether and lean on other visual design (different font size, color, etc)?

vavroom commented 3 weeks ago

@digilou Yes, let's drop the emdash, and go for a background damage for the quote. Only thing to be aware of is what does the background image look like in windows high contrast mode?

digilou commented 2 weeks ago

@vavroom If it's a purely decorative background image, I wouldn't say it's essential to appear in WHCM. There would be space there, but nothing that should look odd.
