Should an identical alt and caption trigger a warning?

Hi @oldrup,

Very sorry for the late follow up on this and thanks for bring it to our attention.

Our rule currently isn’t checking for duplicate alternative text inside of <figcaption> elements.

I’ve opened a GitHub issue for this: https://github.com/equalizedigital/accessibility-checker/issues/732

I’ve also put together a patch for this: https://github.com/equalizedigital/accessibility-checker/pull/733

We’ll do some internal review of this and if it’s a good fix it’ll be released in the next version.

Please keep an eye on the issue for updates.

Thank you for confirming Steve, and no worries about the response time, really.

Will check the next update, for sure.

Bjarne
