Modal window

A modal window is an element of the page that is superimposed on the rest of the page, in the manner of an alert message. It is not a new window or tab. A modal window is contained in the page currently being viewed.

• If you are using a screen reader, when a modal window opens :
  • NVDA announces « [Nom] dialog » ;
