Accessibility issue: WCAG 2.1 AA F78 – The CSS outline or border style

    We have done considerable testing and find that there are six occasions where there is CSS in the ‘events-manager/includes/css/events_manager.css?ver=5.9942
    ‘ CSS file that removes the focus outline by ‘0’ or ‘none’. Please remove this to allow standard focus styling to be used for keyboard-only users and therefore pass WCAG 2.1 AA standards.

    The six occasions:

    div.css-search input.em-search-text, div.css-search input.em-search-geo 
{... outline:none !important; ...}
div.css-search div.em-search-main div.em-search-field input::-webkit-input-placeholder 
{... outline:none; ...}
div.css-search div.em-search-main div.em-search-field input:-moz-placeholder 
{ ... outline:none; ...}
div.css-search div.em-search-main div.em-search-field input::-moz-placeholder 
{... outline:none; ...}
div.css-search div.em-search-main div.em-search-field input:-ms-input-placeholder {... outline:none; ...}
.ui-em_timepicker-wrapper
{... outline:0; ...}

    Please let us know if you intend to remove these overrides, or if we should add your plugin to the list of excluded plugins, or exceptions to the accessibility statement for this website.
    Many thanks,

    Thanks, I’m going to inform the Dev’s about this.

    Having removed the offending rules, I see no side-effects from doing so, we’ll add this in the next update which should be out in the coming days.

    I’m curious what you mean by this though:

    or if we should add your plugin to the list of excluded plugins

    What list are you referring to?

    Sorry @msykes, that was a reference to an internal list of plugins we pass on to clients that would impact their accessibility statements. My apologies – that’s not relevant to the plugin developers at all!

    Many thanks in reviewing the fixes and we’ll let our clients know it’s in hand.
