Accessibilty Imporovements #26

Closed MarnuLombard closed 10 years ago

Changed to after(errorEl) for the sake of screenreaders

→ Screenreaders don't automatically "see" DOM elements inserted before inputs → Inserting errors after the relevant input allows blind people to easily recieve these errors if the site uses happy.js → Where I learned this was: alistapart.com/article/designing-for-easy-interaction

Added role=alert for accessibility too
