Hi,
NVDA supports aria-alert on Firefox (and possibly Chrome and IE if coded correctly), but it isn't supported in Edge. Would it be possible to add support for aria-alert role in Edge?
Technical: yes: live region changed event is fired, coming from objects with varying automation ID's. Thankfully, its children contains alert text, so grab them in one sweep (string joining operation).
This came out of a Twitter conversation with an accessibility tester.
Thanks.
