Structure

  • Highlight boxes have a visual heading which is not marked up as a heading in code. (WCAG 1.3.1)
  • Page titles in the Application section are not always descriptive and do not match the visual heading of the page. (WCAG 2.4.2)
  • The currently focused item can sometimes be hidden beneath the fixed menu bar at the top of the page. (WCAG 2.4.7)
  • There are navigation regions on the page without unique labels, which can make them less useful for users of assistive technology. (WCAG 1.3.1)

The search function has some issues which can make it harder to use for people with disabilities:

  • All the subheadings of search results are incorrectly marked up as main headings (h1’s). (WCAG 1.3.1)

  • Moving keyboard focus out of the search field causes search results to disappear. (WCAG 1.4.13)
  • The search is announced as a web dialogue to assistive technology users, but does not follow the correct specification for web dialogues, which can make screen reader use confusing. (WCAG 4.1.1.)
