ARIA: section role
The section
role, an abstract role, is a superclass role for renderable structural containment components.
Note: The section
role is an abstract role. It is included here for completeness of documentation. It should not be used by web authors.
Description
The structural section
role is an abstract role for categorizing all the section subclass roles. The role must not be used. Some subclasses, like alert
,
note
, and tooltip
are useful, and can be used to add semantics when no semantic HTML elements quite fit the purpose of a component. Others, like code
, figure
, and subscript
, aren't necessary, as there are HTML element equivalents. In this case, <code>
<figure>
and <sub>
, respectively.
Best Practices
Do not use.
