Searchbar: Redundant voiceover due to label and placeholder. #62
Comments
Adding more context from slack (thread):
The issue is that we have a placeholder, basically. The label exists, but is hidden. All the new search fields have been styled to use this pattern, which will create the verbose output (a hidden label and a placeholder). Additionally, while I don't think this technically fails WCAG, the placeholder works as the visual label and it disappears as soon as you start typing. Learn fixed this by making the label visual & removing the placeholder. |
