Review site in high contrast mode #137

Closed cehfisher closed 6 years ago

cehfisher commented 6 years ago

Probably not the highest priority, but want to make sure this gets a review as well.

From @fuzzbomb:

The way the main nav uses tansparent bottom borders, is likely to break in windows high contrast mode. color: transparent is overridden, so all items will be underlined. I should test that for real.

On a positive note, there are very few instances of the transparent keyword in the CSS, so we're off to a good start here with Windows High Contrast themes :-)

fuzzbomb commented 6 years ago

We should stop conveying different states by toggling colour between transparent and some visible colour.

As far as I'm concerned, transparent is a colour, and if active/hover/focus states are solely swapping a 3px transparent border for a 3px red border then that's a failure of WCAG 1.4.1 Use of Color.

We actually have this problem in Seven, for the secondary tabs. Must file an issue against the Seven theme for that....

@fuzzbomb it would be great if you could suggest an other solution which is right for a11y too.

Let's close this one, effectively postponing it. The MVP theme was committed to core a while back. Meanwhile, the core plan for supporting Windows High Contrast mode hasn't gone beyond the fact-finding stage yet.

I'll add a task to review Umami in the Drupal.org plan - Make core themes more robust in Windows High-Contrast mode
