Web browser: --- Bug #: 41297 Summary: MediaWiki's assistive headers are broken in modern browsers Product: MediaWiki Version: unspecified Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: Unprioritized Component: Interface AssignedTo: wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org ReportedBy: mediawiki-b...@nadir-seen-fire.com CC: krinklem...@gmail.com Classification: Unclassified Mobile Platform: --- In vector we output assistive headers into h5's to separate the parts of the UI for users using screen readers to understand. However we use display: none; on these headers. Modern screen readers use standard css-capable web browsers. This means that use of display: none; hides content from the very users who are supposed to be seeing them. WAVE's text overview provides a good view of how this affects the output since they intentionally hide content that is display: none;ed to reflect the reality of screen readers: http://wave.webaim.org/report?view=textonly&url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ian_Fleming As you can see our personal links, namespaces, and actions all just end up as a big mass of unlabeled lists that appear conceptually as part of the page text after categories. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
