Exceptions apply for content requiring two-dimensional layout.

Visual presentation of user interface components and graphical objects have a contrast ratio of at least 3:1 against adjacent colors, with exceptions for inactive components and where appearance is determined by the user agent.

No loss of content or functionality occurs when users set line height to at least 1.5 times the font size, letter spacing to at least 0.12 times the font size, word spacing to at least 0.16 times the font size, and space after paragraphs to at least 2 times the font size.

Where receiving and then removing pointer hover or keyboard focus triggers additional content to become visible and then hidden, the additional content is dismissible, hoverable, and persistent.

All functionality of the content is operable through a keyboard interface without requiring specific timings for individual keystrokes, except where the underlying function requires input that depends on the path of the user's movement.

If keyboard focus can be moved to a component using a keyboard interface, then focus can be moved away from that component using only a keyboard interface; if this requires more than unmodified arrow or Tab keys, users are advised of the method for moving focus away.

All functionality of the content is operable through a keyboard interface without requiring specific timings for individual keystrokes.

If a keyboard shortcut is implemented using only letter, punctuation, number, or symbol characters, then a mechanism is available to turn off, remap, or activate only on focus.

For each time limit set by the content, users can turn off, adjust, or extend the limit unless the time limit is essential or exceeds 20 hours.

For moving, blinking, scrolling, or auto-updating information that starts automatically and lasts more than 5 seconds and is presented in parallel with other content, a mechanism is available for users to pause, stop, or hide it.

Timing is not an essential part of the event or activity presented by the content, except for non-interactive synchronized media and real-time events.

Interruptions can be postponed or suppressed by the user, except for interruptions involving an emergency.

When an authenticated session expires, users can continue the activity without loss of data after re-authenticating.

Users are warned of the duration of any user inactivity that could cause data loss, unless the data is preserved for more than 20 hours of user inactivity.

Web pages do not contain anything that flashes more than three times in any one second period, or the flash is below the general flash and red flash thresholds.

Web pages do not contain anything that flashes more than three times in any one second period.

Motion animation triggered by interaction can be disabled, unless the animation is essential to the functionality or the information being conveyed.

A mechanism is available to bypass blocks of content that are repeated on multiple web pages.

Web pages have titles that describe topic or purpose.

If a web page can be navigated sequentially and the navigation sequences affect meaning or operation, focusable components receive focus in an order that preserves meaning and operation.

The purpose of each link can be determined from the link text alone, or from the link text together with its programmatically determined link context, except where the purpose of the link would be ambiguous to users in general.

More than one way is available to locate a web page within a set of web pages, except where the web page is the result of, or a step in, a process.

Headings and labels describe topic or purpose.

Any keyboard operable user interface has a mode of operation where the keyboard focus indicator is visible.

Information about the user's location within a set of web pages is available.

A mechanism is available to allow the purpose of each link to be identified from link text alone, except where the purpose of the link would be ambiguous to users in general.

Section headings are used to organize the content.

All functionality that uses multipoint or path-based gestures for operation can be operated with a single pointer without a path-based gesture, unless a multipoint or path-based gesture is essential.

For functionality that can be operated using a single pointer, at least one of the following is true: no down-event, abort or undo, up reversal, or essential.

For user interface components with labels that include text or images of text, the name contains the text that is presented visually.

Functionality that can be operated by device motion or user motion can also be operated by user interface components, and responding to the motion can be disabled to prevent accidental actuation.

The size of the target for pointer inputs is at least 44 by 44 CSS pixels, with exceptions for inline links, user-agent controls, and essential targets.

Web content does not restrict use of input modalities available on a platform except where the restriction is essential, required to ensure the security of the content, or required to respect user settings.

The default human language of each web page can be programmatically determined.

The human language of each passage or phrase in the content can be programmatically determined, except for proper names, technical terms, words of indeterminate language, and words or phrases that have become part of the vernacular of the immediately surrounding text.

A mechanism for identifying the expanded form or meaning of abbreviations is available.

When text requires reading ability more advanced than the lower secondary education level after removal of proper names and titles, supplemental content or a version that does not require reading ability more advanced than the lower secondary education level is available.

A mechanism is available for identifying specific pronunciation of words where meaning of the words, in context, is ambiguous without knowing the pronunciation.

When any user interface component receives focus, it does not initiate a change of context.

Changing the setting of any user interface component does not automatically cause a change of context unless the user has been advised of the behavior before using the component.

Navigational mechanisms that are repeated on multiple web pages within a set of web pages occur in the same relative order each time they are repeated, unless a change is initiated by the user.

Components that have the same functionality within a set of web pages are identified consistently.

Changes of context are initiated only by user request, or a mechanism is available to turn off such changes.

If an input error is automatically detected, the item that is in error is identified and the error is described to the user in text.

Labels or instructions are provided when content requires user input.

If an input error is automatically detected and suggestions for correction are known, then the suggestion is provided to the user, unless it would jeopardize the security or purpose of the content.

In content implemented using markup languages, elements have complete start and end tags, elements are nested according to their specifications, elements do not contain duplicate attributes, and any IDs are unique — except where specifications allow these features.

For all user interface components, the name and role can be programmatically determined; states, properties, and values that can be set by the user can be programmatically determined; and notification of changes is available to user agents, including assistive technologies.

In content implemented using markup languages, status messages can be programmatically determined through role or properties such that they can be presented to the user by assistive technologies without receiving focus.
