https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=33808 Bug ID: 33808 Summary: Accessibility: Non-descriptive links Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: master Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 - low Component: OPAC Assignee: oleonard@myacpl.org Reporter: matt.blenkinsop@ptfs-europe.com QA Contact: testopia@bugs.koha-community.org An accessibility report run by the Shaw trust for the British Museum has found some examples of links that are not labelled descriptively enough for screen readers. Extract below: "The text of a link should describe the destination of the link and the link’s purpose. Providing a descriptive link text will allow users to easily determine the function of the link and make educated decisions to click the link or not. If it is not possible to identify the purpose of the link from the link text itself, then this information should be provided in context. Screen reader users have the ability to display and navigate by lists of elements, or jump from element to element. Navigating this way is much quicker than listening to a whole page, however the context provided by paragraphs and other narrative is lost and non-descriptive links become harder to understand. For downloadable links, we recommend that the file type and size of the file is also included in the link text to allow the user to make a decision whether or not to download the file. On the 'opac-shelves.pl?op=view&shelfnumber=148&sortfield=title’ page there is a non-descriptive link labelled ‘Download’, this issue is found on numerous pages tested." This patch addresses similar Download buttons, adding aria-labels and aria-has popups to the links. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
