Access keys

Access keys for tools list and content bring focus to jump links at top of page, from which the user can navigate to the tools list or main content. Is this the desired behavior? Access+0 does not open up the accessibility page.

 

 

 

Change of Context Notification

OK.

 

 

 

Error Notices

After entering information for a user with a pre-existing account or other erroneous entries, the error message appears above the form, so the user has no idea of what has transpired. The JAWS virtual cursor remains at the bottom of the iframe, on the "Create Account" button. The user will not know that the account has not been created without hunting for the error message.

Use an ARIA live region to put focus directly before the error message.

Major

Required Field Notification

Required fields are denoted by an asterisk "*" without an explanation of meaning of asterisk before the form begins. This is insufficient notification.

Explain meaning of asterisk before the form. Also add aria-required attribute to indicate required field for SR users. Example:

 <input name="ariaexample" id="example" aria-required="true" aria-label="Test"/>
