The value of a <code>combobox</code> is represented by one of the following:
</p>
<ul>
<li>If the <code>aria-valuetext</code> attribute is specified on the element with the <code>combobox</code> role, the value of the attribute is the value of the <code>combobox</code> element.</li>
<li>If the <code>combobox</code> element is a host language element that provides a value, such as an HTML <code>input</code> element, the value of the combobox is the value of that element.</li>
<li>Otherwise, the value of the <code>combobox</code> is represented by its descendant elements and can be determined using the same method used to compute the name of a <rref>button</rref> from its descendant content.</li>

<p><a>Defines</a> the human readable text alternative of <pref>aria-valuenow</pref> for a range <a>widget</a>, or a text alternative for the value of supported custom or native widgets that support the attribute.</p>
<p>This property is used, for example, on a range widget such as a slider or progress bar.</p>
<p>If the <pref>aria-valuetext</pref> attribute is set, authors SHOULD also set the <pref>aria-valuenow</pref> attribute, unless that value is unknown (for example, on an indeterminate <rref>progressbar</rref>).</p>
<p>Authors SHOULD only set the <pref>aria-valuetext</pref> attribute when the rendered value cannot be meaningfully represented as a number. For example, a slider might have rendered values of <code>small</code>, <code>medium</code>, and <code>large</code>. In this case, the values of <pref>aria-valuenow</pref> could range from 1 through 3, which indicate the position of each value in the value space, but the <pref>aria-valuetext</pref> would be one of the strings: <code>small</code>, <code>medium</code>, or <code>large</code>. If the <pref>aria-valuetext</pref> attribute is absent, the <a>assistive technologies</a> will rely solely on the <pref>aria-valuenow</pref> attribute for the current value.</p>
