spAriaUtil - sendLiveMessage(String message)

Announce a message to a screen reader.

The sendLiveMessage() method injects text into an aria-live region on the page. The default setting for an aria-live region is assertive, which means that messages are announced immediately. This can annoy and confuse users if used too frequently.

function(spAriaUtil) {
  /* widget controller */

  spAriaUtil.sendLiveMessage('Hello world!');
}
