Title:
Datepicker is not keyboard-accessible
Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
In Progress
Bug description:
Currently the DHTML date picker widget (for example the date field on
/artefact/plans/edit/task.php) is not easy to navigate using a screen reader.
- it opens below all other elements and does not have focus set to it - this
is confusing for screen reader users since activating the button appears to do
nothing
- it has null alt-text, resulting in screen readers finding a variety of
unrelated bits of text to read out as the title
Eventually the date picker should be made accessible by having focus
locked to it while it is open (using ARIA) but for now it would be
fine to disable it (somehow) for screen reader users since it's
possible to enter the date in the right format by hand.
Affects latest master (using Orca 3.4.2)
(WCAG Level A)
