Bug 25901 – [Gtk] Use ATK_ROLE_SECTION for divTag and ATK_ROLE_LABEL for labelTag

• Status: RESOLVED
• Resolution: FIXED
• Component: Accessibility

[Joanmarie Diggs]

Steps to reproduce:

1. Open the (to be) attached test case.

2. Use Accerciser to explore the accessible hierarchy

Expected results: The text enclosed in <div></div> would be contained in an accessible object of ROLE_SECTION.

Actual results: The text enclosed in <div></div> is contained in an accessible object of ROLE_PANEL.

As for paragraphs contained in <div></div>, the expected hierarchy would include both roles, thus:

- ROLE_SECTION
  - ROLE_PARAGRAPH
    - ROLE_TEXT

aforementioned test case

Now that I'm actually looking at these things from the other side.... :-)

Bug 25530 is really two different bugs (and possibly three):

1. The accessible role being used with labels is wrong

2. The LABEL_FOR/LABELLED_BY relationship pair is missing (because, among other things, it seems accessible relationships haven't been implemented yet)

3. The accessible name of the AtkObject which is LABELLED_BY the label should be taken from the name of the label. And I'm starting to suspect that ain't going to happen magically on its own.

So.... I've re-purposed this bug to deal with issue 1 (roles). 25530 can deal with the other two issues.

Also, regarding this bit:

> As for paragraphs contained in <div></div>, the expected hierarchy would
> include both roles, thus:
>

>   - ROLE_PARAGRAPH
>     - ROLE_TEXT

I suggested it because that's what Gecko does. I'm now starting to think doing that might be rather pointless, not to mention introduce a bunch of unneeded additional accessibles into the mix which might negatively impact performance. Therefore, I'm withdrawing this part for now. If, upon further consideration, I want it after all, I'll file a new bug for it.

Tested with both the test case for this bug and for the test case for bug 25530.

Seems fine but I'm waiting for Xan to comment.
