Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
Alex has done some research; can't be solved: we'll leave it as is for now |
Facebook like widget |
Facebook like and Google plus buttons are not understandable when used with a screen reader |
|
On production |
On "My OER" page, folder delete and add buttons confusing for screen readers |
On the "My OER" page, the folder delete and add buttons after each OER name, to the right of the rating widget, are not described well when using a screen reader. They could use more descriptive text somehow. |
|
On production: tested |
"Add OER" bookmarklet |
The panel on the front page in the right column allows the user to add a widget to their bookmarks bar. When used with a screen reader it is not clear what the button does. When activated with the keyboard the dialog that opens does not get focus. - https://github.com/acheetham/OER-Commons/tree/592-add-oer-button |

On production: tested |
Login drop down |
When using a screen reader, the account settings menu is not keyboard accessible |

On production |
Some links and buttons do not receive keyboard focus |
Search button on MY OER page, "no strings attached" link in the detailed view , "Read fine print" link in search results, Save and Change buttons on the edit account settings page in My OERs preference settings |
|
On production: tested |
Login process accessibility |
If an error is made entering login information, there does not seem to be a way to get back to the login form using a keyboard. Perhaps have focus sent to an anchor just before the error message in the login box. NOTE: In Anastasia's branch: https://github.com/acheetham/OER-Commons/tree/584-failed-login

Search results "details" toggle |
The details toggle with each search result announces as "show a list". This text might be more meaningful as "expand/collapse details" or something like that. |
|
On production |
Rating widget |
https://github.com/ISKME/OER-Commons/pull/132
New issue not fixed with first commit: Ratings widget is displaying the label text in the top frame of the OER display frameset. Fix for this new issue has been added to origin work on the ratings widget. |

On production, AC tested and confirmed |
Skip to content link |
A "jump to main content" link in the header will be very useful for keyboard users. Anastasia's note: Currently, I can't get the authoring tool to into Preview mode, so I've been unable to test the 'skip to' link on that page. |
On production |
Get Satisfaction widget |
https://www.assembla.com/spaces/iskme/tickets/551-feedback-panel-not-usable-with-a-keyboard-or-a-screen-reader The feedback panel is not usable with a keyboard or a screen reader. When it opens up, screen readers are not notified and do not read the content in it. Using the keyboard to try to navigate it only allows you to focus on two of the many focusable items and even these could use better descriptions when used with a screen reader. Once the panel has opened, it becomes a keyboard trap, meaning you can never tab away from it or close it. |
|
On production |
Bookmark and Share widget |
The "Bookmark and Share" popup sends focus to the top of the page when you tab past it. This means that everything after the 'share' section is difficult to reach through keyboard navigation. This has been improved slightly with a newer version but the interaction is still awkward. Now the user is sent up to the browser chrome after they've tabbed through the popup and then returned to the point in the page where they were prior to the popup opening. |

On production |
Styling issue with "my item" page and course search result page |
Our search results and my items are not displaying correctly. Staging and production, Chrome, Firefox and IE. |
On production |
Carousel |
The content of the sliding carousel is not very accessible to screen-reader users. Consider adding descriptive link text to links that are displayed using background images, or alt text to images that are not links. |
