ramesh valasa updated WICKET-6775:
----------------------------------
Affects Version/s: 8.1.0
> Autocompelete suggestion list not read by screen reader
> -------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: WICKET-6775
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WICKET-6775
> Project: Wicket
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: wicket-extensions
> Affects Versions: 8.1.0
> Reporter: ramesh valasa
> Priority: Major
>
> As part of accessibility compliance, we see autocomplete suggestion list is
> not able to read by screen reader(NVDA).
> use case:
> -------------
> Start NVDA and click on the autocomplete text field then type
> some letters, we see suggestion list apears. Then use arrow key to navigate
> among the list. screen reader is only promting the value in the textfield not
> the value from the list.
> Expected:
> -------------
> Screen reader read the value from the suggestio list when we navigate through
> arrow keys.
>
> Solution direction:
> ------------------
> 1) Add unique id's to the suggestion list items
> 2) when ever we navigation through list items using arrow key, add
> aria-activedescendant attibute to text field with value as id of the list item
> example:
