JAWs error #44

Open bkardell opened 8 years ago

It would appear that in both of the prollyfill implementations, at some point we introduced something where IE11 + JAWs is reading "remove this panel" for the panel titles in panelsets instead of their actual titles. This 'element' is display none and aria hidden while the actual title is neither. I am at a loss for why this is happening and I'm not seeing it in other things like chromevox... Thoughts?

Slack feedback from @stevefaulkner, including it here for completeness...

the difference between panel and panelset is that you have role=tab on focusable element in panelset, it picks up children text nodes as tab name, for acc name calc it doesn't matter that button is hidden. 2 things you can do/try to fix 1. use aria-labelledby to explicitly reference paneltitle as acc name, also change button name from title to aria-label, these 2 things fix the issue.
