Accessibility issue when editing a record

    Hi Roland,

    To fill a form with a screen reader, all checkbox groups and radio groups need their own <fieldset> and <legend> to work well.

    Since any of “default”, “tbody” or “bootstrap” pdb-record’s template have this setting, I tried to make a custum template. But I failed.

    At first sight, form elements are built and grouped together (or not) by “PDb_FormElement.php” in a way impossible to change with a custum template.

    Am I wrong? And if not, any clue for me?

    Regards,

    Normand Lamoureux (AKA norlam)

    Accessibility is very important to me. Can you point me to a resource where I can see the recommendation that you are referring to?

    It is probably not something that can happen at the template level, as you have seen, so I need to roll that into the code, but first I need to understand the recommendation in detail. Thanks!

    Hi Roland,

    Happy to hear you care about accessibility!

    WebAIM could give you a good starting point (let me know if you need more):

    As I do, you can run your own tests with the free open source screen reader NVDA:

    Hi Roland,

    The last released provided (Version : 1.9.5.13) works as expected with screen readers.

    Sure you don’t need confirmation about that. It’s just to say I’m happy.

    Thanks a lot!
