Cassandra Targett commented on SOLR-8090:
-----------------------------------------
I forgot about this issue, but agree the contrast is really hard to read. I
changed it to #8D8D8D on the logging screen in SOLR-11895, but reviewing that
choice in the context of this test, it's only a marginally better choice than
what exists today.
Using #4D4D4D would be dark enough to pass the test but still be lighter than
#000 to achieve the original goal of de-emphasizing some text. That said, there
are some things that we just shouldn't de-emphasize at all (like the
Collection/Core menus in the left drop-down), so I would propose just not
trying to do it in those places.
I'll put a patch up for this in a day or so, with some before/after screenshots.

> Key: SOLR-8090
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-8090
> Project: Solr
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Admin UI
> Affects Versions: 5.3
> Reporter: Mike Mallett
> Priority: Major
> Attachments: Solr-5.3.1-AdminUI-Contrast-Examples.png
>
>
> The CSS for the admin UI in 5.3.1 has the following definition which affects
> help text in a variety of places:
> #core-selector #has-no-cores span
> {
> color: #c0c0c0;
> display: block;
> }
> This is displayed on a white background, making the text with colour #c0c0c0
> next to impossible to read. This fails WCAG accessability guidelines and can
> be checked using this Contract Checker:
> http://webaim.org/resources/contrastchecker/
> Please adjust the CSS for the admin UI to display text in a more highly
> contrasted colour. Thanks.
