capozzic1 commented 1 year ago

Summary

Brief description of the issue. Please list any specific steps. JAWS is not announcing the status of the aria sort attribute when enter is pressed in Microsoft Edge.

Example:

  1. Go to https://www.w3.org/WAI/ARIA/apg/patterns/table/examples/sortable-table/
  2. Navigate to the table with the caption that says 'Students currently enrolled in WAI-ARIA 101'
  3. Navigate to first name
  4. Press enter

Expected result

JAWS should announce 'enter ascending' or 'enter descending' depending on the sort status.

Actual result

JAWS only announces 'enter'

Additional Information

JAWS version and build number

JAWS 2021.2107.12

Operating System and version

Windows 10 Enterprise

Browser and version:

Microsoft Edge 113.01774.50 64 bit

JAWS-test commented 1 year ago

Problem also occurs with JAWS 2022 and 2023.

Problem does not occur with Firefox and Chrome.

Problem is not so severe because the sort direction is noticeable when navigating to the column heading again
