Description Martin Renvoize 2020-04-22 06:56:12 UTC
Multiple generic ‘Select this item’ check boxes are present on the search results pages that some users may not be able to differentiate between when navigating out of context.

1/ Search for an item
2/ Note that the results page has multiple checkboxes with matching aria tags.

Current code:
<td class="select selectcol">
<input name="biblionumber" class="cb" id="bib28526" aria-label="Select this item"
type="checkbox" value="28526">
<label for="bib28526"></label>
</td>

Solution:
Ensure that all form elements are uniquely descriptive of their purpose. For example:

<td class="select selectcol">
<input name="biblionumber" class="cb" id="bib28526" aria-label="Select ‘Taxing
time for housing’" type="checkbox" value="28526">
<label for="bib28526"></label>
</td>

Hi Martin,

I think I'm missing something, but I can't see aria-label for the checkboxes in the Staff client or the OPAC, not in the code on the webpage nor in the source code.

Could you please let me know how I can see what you're seeing for "Current code"?
Comment 2 Martin Renvoize 2020-06-29 14:36:54 UTC
Interesting.. it looks like standard Koha is missing the aria labels entirely.

Bug 25244: Add specific aria-label to search results

This patch adds an arai-lebel to the select checkboxes on the search
results page of the OPAC.

3/ Note that there is no arai-label
4/ Apply patch
5/ Refresh the search results page
6/ Inspect the 'checkbox' on the left side of the results table
7/ Note that the aria-label now appears and contains relavant
information
8/ Signoff

Comment 5 Julian Maurice 2020-07-03 06:39:43 UTC
Shouldn't it be "Select bibliographic record" ?

I think the values of aria-label attributes are not automatically picked up by the translator, so it is not translatable.

Also, QA script complains about missing TT filters

> Shouldn't it be "Select bibliographic record" ?

Hmm, perhaps "Select search result: ".. your right it's a bib record and not an item, but to an OPAC user I'm not sure they'd want to draw the difference.. it's used for selecting a result to place on hold etc.

Good question.. I didn't think about that.. is that not a wider issue though.. we need aria-labels for accessibility.. we really ought to pick them for translations.

Oops.. I'll fix that.

Comment 12 Katrin Fischer 2020-07-04 23:14:38 UTC
Can we switch item for something else please? In German item (for holdings) and item (like a list item) are not the same word and there is not enough context to make sense for translation here.

I realized now, that the follow-up took care of this.
