I believe this issue was fixed/resolved in 22.x and newer versions with the work completed on the Date Picker/Calendar Widget (date picker-trigger) as part of SAK-41260 and so this issue could probably be closed??

is this still a problem in current versions of Sakai?

Sam Ottenhoff June 20, 2018 at 9:36 AM

It seems like we want aria-hidden=true on the button and not just the span?

We want a screen-reader user to input the date/time directly into the input box. So we don't want this calendar icon to be focusable, right?
