This fails several success criteria.<br/> Recommended fix: use standard link pattern for these links (not superscript) and state that they are footnotes in the link text (i.e. ‘Footnote 1’)</li> <li>There is a table missing headers on the File List page<br/> The file listing on the File List page is a table that lacks headers. This is a failure of Success Criterion 1.3.1.<br/> Recommended fix: either replace the table with a list or use correct mark-up for the table.</li> <li>Contrast issues, including links that appear on a non-white background (Success Criterion 1.4.3: Contrast)</li> <li>Use of colour as the only visual means to convey text as a link (Success Criterion 1.4.1: Use of Colour)</li> <li>Heading levels not accurately representing the document outline (Success Criterion 1.3.1: Info and Relationships)</li> <li>The image viewer controls in Discovery are not fully keyboard accessible (Success Criterion 2.1.1 Keyboard)</li> <li>Form inputs missing labels (Success Criterion 2.4.6: Headings and Labels)</li> <li>Buttons missing a value (Success Criterion 3.3.2: Labels or Instructions)</li> <li>Duplicated ID attributes, for example different forms on the same page, having inputs that share an ID attribute (Success Criterion: 4.1.1 Parsing)</li> <li>Incorrect use of list attribute (Success Criterion: 4.1.1 Parsing)</li> <li>Images missing descriptive alt text attributes (Success Criterion 1.1.1: Non-text Content)</li> <li>Some pages do not describe the human language they contain (Success Criterion 3.1.1: Language of Page)</li> <li>Some pages have a ‘Skip to content’ link to a non-existent page fragment (Success Criterion 1.3.1: Info and Relationships)</li> <li>There are links to PDFs and other non-HTML content that do not inform the user of the file type (Success Criterion 2.4.4: Link Purpose (In Context))</li> <li>Some data tables contain an empty table header (Success Criterion 1.3.1: Info and Relationships)</li> <li>Incorrectly applied ARIA attributes, with ‘role=search’ being applied to an input rather than a form and aria-labelled-by being misspelt (Success Criterion 1.3.1: Info and Relationships)</li> <li>The cookie notice banner includes a link whose purpose is not clear when navigating out of context (Success Criterion 2.4.9 Link Purpose (Link Only))</li> </ol> <p>Advisory Council section of our website:</p> <ol> <li>Some images require CSS to achieve contrast with the page background</li> <li>Footnote links on the Advisory Council Terms of Reference page do not receive keyboard focus and become invisible when receiving hover</li> <li>There is a table missing headers on the Advisory Council File List page </li> </ol> <p>We have prioritised these fixes based on the number of pages affected and the popularity of the page.
