1626543 - Some fields on enter bug page do not have associated labels

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(bugzilla.mozilla.org :: User Interface, defect)

Description

[James Teh [:Jamie]]

On the enter bug page, the following fields do not have a label associated for accessibility:

• Hardware, Operating system: These are wrapped by a span with a title, but the label needs to be exposed on the select element.
• Alias
• Depends on
• Blocks
• Regressed by
• Whiteboard
• Mentors

Impact: This makes filing bugs much less efficient for me as a screen reader user (which I do on a daily basis), as I have to double check surrounding context to be sure I'm entering data into the right field. In particular, I heavily use the Depends on, Blocks and Whiteboard fields when filing bugs.

+1 to that as another screen reader user.

A quick test with the Accessibility panel in Firefox DevTools finds more than 15 text label issues. Also the layout tables are missing role="none". I’ll fix them all.
