[Bug 9399] New: Accessibility - Search box options aren't buttons
http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=9399 Bug ID: 9399 Summary: Accessibility - Search box options aren't buttons Classification: Unclassified Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: master Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: trivial Priority: P5 - low Component: Staff Client Assignee: koha-bugs@lists.koha-community.org Reporter: bart.tj@gmail.com CC: gmcharlt@gmail.com the options under the search box on most pages (eg: on the mainpage: checkout, check in, search patrons... etc.) are not classed as buttons which means screen readers read them separately to the search box and it isn't clear that they are related, or that changing the options effects the box. In addition to this on some pages there are identically named links that are very difficult to distinguish between when only using a screen reader. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

The patch will need to be worked on.
What does this mean? Do you have any references citing the utility of the changes made? I don't see any outward effects on the interface from a sighted person's point of view, so I'm fine with the change if it is a practical improvement. A more complex solution might be to upgrade jQuery to 1.9, which adds ARIA support to widgets like Tabs. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

I would like to understand better why the changes are being made. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
