ARIA roles used must conform to valid values

1 element

Invalid ARIA role values prevent assistive technologies from understanding and communicating the element's purpose to users. Without valid roles, screen readers cannot provide information about the element's features, properties, or how users should interact with it.

#radix-\:r9\:

<span role="label" id="radix-:r9:" class="wpds-c-bROtJV wpds-c-iJWmNK">Find a recipe</span>

Fix all of the following:

Role must be one of the valid ARIA roles: label

Serious

Frames must have an accessible name

1 element

Screen reader users rely on frame titles to understand frame content without exploring each one. Without descriptive, unique titles, users receive unhelpful information like "frame," "JavaScript," or URLs, making navigation through frames difficult and confusing.

iframe[src$="about:blank"]:nth-child(1)

<iframe src="about:blank" style="position: absolute; top: -10000px; left: -1000px;"></iframe>

Fix any of the following:

Element has no title attribute
aria-label attribute does not exist or is empty

Serious

Links must have discernible text

15 elements

Keyboard users and screen reader users can only interact with links that have accessible names and can receive focus. Without proper names, users don't know where links lead. Without keyboard focus, users who cannot use a mouse cannot activate the links at all.

<li> elements must be contained in a <ul> or <ol>

11 elements

Lists require proper semantic hierarchy with ul or ol parent elements and li child elements. This structure allows screen readers to announce when users enter a list, how many items it contains, and which item they're currently on, providing essential context for understanding the content.

Interactive elements must have a visible focus indicator

3 elements

Sighted keyboard users rely on a visible focus indicator to know where they are on the page. When focus styles are missing, too subtle, or have insufficient contrast against the surrounding colors, users cannot tell which element will respond when they press Enter or Space, making keyboard navigation slow and error-prone. This especially affects people with motor impairments who cannot use a mouse and people with low vision who need clear, high-contrast indicators.

All page content should be contained by landmarks

2 elements

Content should be organized within high-level landmark regions like <header>, <navigation>, <main>, and <footer>.

Users should be able to zoom and scale the text up to 500%

1 element

The user-scalable="no" and restrictive maximum-scale parameters prevent people with low vision from zooming to read content. Users who rely on browser zoom to enlarge text are blocked from accessing content at a readable size, violating their need to scale pages up to 5x zoom.

<html> element must have a lang attribute

1 element

Screen readers need language information to switch between pronunciation libraries. Without a specified language, screen readers default to the user's preferred language, resulting in incorrect pronunciation that sounds like a strange accent and makes content difficult or impossible to understand.

html

<html lang="en" class="js-enabled" data-scrim-state="closed" style="height: 100vh; overflow: hidden;">

<html> element must have a valid value for the lang attribute

1 element

Screen readers use language-specific sound libraries for proper pronunciation. Invalid language attributes cause screen readers to use the wrong library, making text sound like a confusing accent or completely unintelligible, especially for multilingual users who access content in multiple languages.

SVG images need text alternatives so their information can be accessed through any sensory modality - visual, auditory, or tactile. Text alternatives enable screen readers to convert visual information into speech or braille, support future translation into sign language, and ensure content is accessible regardless of a user's sensory abilities.

Duplicating alternative text adjacent to an image or link forces screen readers to announce the same information twice. This redundancy is unnecessary and confusing, especially when image buttons repeat their labels in nearby text.

ARIA hidden element must not be focusable or contain focusable elements

63 elements

aria-hidden="true" must not be present on the document body

1 element

Setting <body aria-hidden="true" hides all page content from assistive technologies while leaving it visible on screen. This creates a confusing experience where keyboard users can still tab to elements, but screen readers remain completely silent, providing no information about what's focused.

Elements marked as presentational should be consistently ignored

14 elements

Elements with role="none" or role="presentation" should be removed from the accessibility tree. Adding global ARIA attributes or making these elements focusable prevents their removal, leaving them accessible to screen readers when they should be ignored, creating unexpected and confusing behavior.

Elements must meet minimum color contrast ratio thresholds

24 elements

People with low vision or color blindness cannot read text that lacks sufficient contrast with its background. With nearly three times more people having low vision than total blindness, and 8% of men and 0.4% of women having color deficiencies, adequate contrast is essential for making text readable to millions of users.

Elements should not have tabindex greater than zero

2 elements

Using tabindex values greater than 0 creates unexpected tab orders that disorient users. It makes elements appear to be skipped when users tab past them, requires setting tabindex on every element to maintain order, and forces all tabindex items to be visited before any normal elements, breaking natural navigation flow.

Form elements must have labels

1 element

Form labels are essential for screen reader users to understand what information each field requires. Without proper labels, screen readers cannot identify input expectations, fields don't receive focus when announced, and users with motor impairments lose the benefit of larger clickable areas that labels provide.

Form elements should have a visible label

1 element

The title and aria-describedby attributes provide supplementary hints, not labels. Screen readers treat these as advisory information rather than true labels, which prevents them from properly conveying the form element's purpose. Form fields need proper labels that can be programmatically determined.

Form field must not have multiple label elements

1 element

Multiple labels on the same form field cause inconsistent behavior across screen reader and browser combinations. Some will read the first label, others the last, and some will read both, creating confusion about what information the field requires.

Frames must have a unique title attribute

1 element

Screen reader users navigate frames using a list of frame titles. Duplicate or missing titles make it impossible to distinguish between frames, forcing users to explore each frame's content manually. Unique, descriptive titles enable quick navigation to the correct frame.

IDs used in ARIA and labels must be unique

Duplicate IDs break the accessibility of ARIA elements, form labels, and table headers. When IDs are duplicated, assistive technologies and scripts only reference the first instance, causing subsequent elements with the same ID to be ignored or incorrectly associated.

Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination

3 elements

Each landmark on a page must have either a unique role or a unique accessible name. Duplicate landmarks confuse screen reader users about which section they're navigating to, making it difficult to efficiently move through the page structure.

Links must be distinguishable without relying on color

2 elements

People with low vision or color blindness cannot visually distinguish links from surrounding text without sufficient color contrast (3:1 ratio minimum). When link colors are too similar to regular text, users with visual impairments cannot identify which text is clickable.

Main landmark should not be contained in another landmark

1 element

The main landmark must be at the top level and not nested inside other landmarks. This ensures screen reader users can quickly navigate to the primary content without searching through complex hierarchy, making page navigation simpler and more predictable.

#main-content

<main id="main-content">

Page must have means to bypass repeated blocks

1 element

Keyboard-only users must tab through all navigation and header content before reaching the main content, which can take several minutes and cause physical pain for users with motor limitations. Bypass mechanisms like skip links allow these users to jump directly to main content, saving time and reducing fatigue.

Page should contain a level-one heading

1 element

Screen reader users use keyboard shortcuts to jump directly to the first h1, expecting to land at the main content. Without an h1 or with a misplaced one, users must listen to more of the page to understand its structure, wasting valuable time on every page visit.

Required ARIA attributes must be provided

53 elements

ARIA widget roles need required attributes to describe their current state. Without these attributes, screen readers cannot communicate essential information like whether a checkbox is checked or a slider's current value, leaving users unable to interact effectively with the widget.

Zooming and scaling must not be disabled

1 element

Setting user-scalable="no" or maximum-scale less than 2 prevents people with low vision from zooming to read content. Users who enlarge text in their browsers are blocked from making content readable, violating accessibility guidelines that require supporting at least 200% zoom.
