  "so, provide a way to bypass the group. (Priority 3)
  
  
  
  
  The "skip navigation" provision of the Section 508 Standards is related to a couple of Priority 3 WCAG checkpoints, but the Section 508 standard is specific and direct. The WCAG checkpoints assume technology not yet supported, like grouping and labeling links.
  
  Timed Responses
  
  
  1194.22 (p) When a timed response is required, the user shall be alerted and given sufficient time to indicate more time is required.
  
  
  Not in WCAG
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  There are not comparable checkpoints in the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines.

  • The intention here is to compare the Priority 1 Web Content  Accessibility checkpoints with the Section 508 Web Accessibility standards.  However, some of the 508 standards relate to lower priority checkpoints  from the Web Accessibility Initiative. The view of the Web Content Accessibility  Guidelines lists only the priority one checkpoints The Section 508 view  includes priority 2 and 3 checkpoints in the comparison.

     

    The first table lists the Priority 1 Web Content Accessibility  checkpoints followed by a comparison phrase like "the same," and then the relevant Section 508 web accessibility standard or standards. This  table is titled "The WCAG View."

     

    The second table is titled, "The  508 View." It lists all the 508 standards, and for each one, the comparison phrase, and  the relevant WCAG checkpoint or checkpoints.

     

    The following three short sections introduce the 508 standards,  and the WCAG priority 1 checkpoints and some resources.
