DAC 12 - Medium Priority WCAG Level AA - Non-Descriptive Names

[JadeneAd]

Issue

The name of the select element that is used to choose the place a user wants to see how it compares for income deprivation measures, may not have a descriptive name for screen reader users. This is because there is another element that serves a different purpose and has the same name.

Suggested Solution

Interactive elements that serve a different purpose should have unique accessible names. We recommend that the visible name ‘Select an area on the map or drop-down menu to see how it compares for income deprivation measures.’ is used to name the select element instead.
