Inconsistent announcement of "Clear" button within search fields #778

Closed Epic-Third-Party-Bug-Reporting closed 8 months ago

Epic-Third-Party-Bug-Reporting commented 8 months ago

Summary

  1. Focus on the text box of a search field.
  2. Type anything.
  3. Arrow down when the next element is the clear button, usually an X on the right side of the search bar. You may have to type a lot of gibberish to avoid arrowing down to results.
  4. Notice no announcement or the announcement of something that isn’t the clear button.

Expected result

The announcement of the clear button

Actual result

No announcement or the announcement of something that isn’t the clear button.

Example

Similar behavior is seen on Yahoo Search - Web Search. NVDA seems to handle this case.

I do not have this problem with Chrome and JAWS. The Clear button is output correctly.

when investigating the yahoo search (JAWS 2024, chrome Version 119.0.6045.105 (Official Build) (64-bit)) I found that the clear button was not in the correct place in the tab order.

the search input is first in focus order, the clear button is seventh in focus order

closing as not a JAWS bug
