Description
One of a collection of notes that occur at the end of a work, or a section within it, that provides additional context to a referenced passage of text.
Examples
This example uses an ol
list element to express the list.
<section role="doc-endnotes" aria-labelledby="note-hd">
<h2 id="note-hd">Notes</h2>
<ol>
<li id="n001">
<p role="doc-footnote">1. In the far reaches of space …</p>
</li>
…
</ol>
</section>
This example defines a list using the ARIA list
and listitem
roles.
<section role="doc-endnotes" aria-labelledby="note-hd">
<h2 id="note-hd">Notes</h2>
<div role="list">
<div role="listitem" id="n001">
<p role="doc-footnote">1. In the far reaches of space …</p>
</div>
…
</div>
</section>
Relation to ARIA
doc-endnote
inherits its semantics from the a listitem role.
Usage
Use of the doc-endnote
role is not recommended on list item elements as
defined in the DPUB-ARIA specification. The role is not compatible with changes to ARIA's
inheritance model (i.e., list
must only contain listitem
roles) and has to
be changed in a future version.
Alternatively, the doc-footnote
role can be used on an element inside the list item, as
displayed in Example 1 above.
If an endnotes section does not use a list to represent its entries, the core list
and
listitem
roles should be used instead. (See Example 2).
