paper-input form label , Screen readers not announcing the form field label
Opened this issue · 1 comments
Actual Result :
form field label element is referenced by the form input using aria-labelledby but it has visibility:hidden applied to it. Screen readers may not announce the form field label.
To hide content from both visual and screen reader users, use the CSS instructions display:none; and visibility:hidden;.
Expected Results :
Need to remove the visibility:hidden CSS property and to use visually-hidden text instead.
CSS used to hide content visually, but make it available to assistive technology users :
.visually-hidden{
position: absolute;
clip: rect(1px 1px 1px 1px); /* for Internet Explorer */
clip: rect(1px, 1px, 1px, 1px);
padding: 0;
border: 0;
height: 1px;
width: 1px;
overflow: hidden;
}
HTML demonstrating use of the class :
This paragraph is present in the DOM and accessible to assistive technologies, but is visually hidden.
Any update on this?
