Is ParamQuery Grid Section 508 compliant?

[SegueTech]

I am just curious whether this tool qualifies as being Section 508 compliant.

It's not tested again 508 compliance, so no claim to be section 508 compliant.

It follows common best practices for accessibility like using td for body content cells and th for headers cells. It also provides keyboard navigation for common features.

Our goal is to provide the following in the upcoming versions:

1. WAI- ARIA support for non-semantic controls like pager, filter row, etc.

2. Keyboard navigation for header cells and make sorting functionality accessible through keyboard.

Please let me know if you have any suggestions on the same.

Thanks for the excellent answer.  I wish I had some suggestions, but I did go through what we are using and found that it complies quite easily with what our guidelines state as requirements.  For the most part, it was already compliant, but I had images for the toolbar buttons, and all I had to do was add the following:

attr: "alt='label of image here'"

Very nice.
