2) The 2018 accessibility regulations.
Due to the non-compliances described below, this website only partially complies with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) version 2.1 AA level.
The issues we are aware of and know we must, cannot, or do not now need to fix are listed here.
When navigating using keyboard controls, there is no obvious attention indicator for checkbox components in the sidebar lists.
As a heading 3 element, a blank heading in the sidebar has been included.
Information provided in a list style when utilising the search functionality contains items that are not contained using HTML tags.
The 'dl' tag is not used to surround the 'dd' or 'dt' elements.
When searches are put to the shortlist, this problem also appears on the shortlist page.
A H1 heading level is empty when using the search functionality while looking for something by Keyword or Location.
The page structure skips a heading level when search results are stored and put to the shortlist page.
From heading level H1 through heading level H3, heading level H2 is skipped.
Along with skipping heading level H2, which is H1-structured, the "Help with searching" page jumps to heading level H3.
Two form control boxes labelled "Keywords" and "Location" that are seen in the "Search" part of the page do not have programmatically associated labels on any of the pages.
Neither WCAG guideline 1.3.1 nor WCAG guideline 4.1.2 are met by this.
There is no text label or asterisk indicator to indicate whether a field is necessary on form control elements.
Some text-based web content does not adhere to the 4.5:1 minimum requirement for colour contrast.
Some non-text items falls short of the required 3:1 minimum for colour contrast.
Some images' alt-text does not provide enough information about them, while some images that need alt-text are designated as decorative instead.
When CSS is turned off in the web browser, buttons lack text and are difficult to interpret visually.
The attention order when using keyboard controls does not correspond to the reading order.
Focus shifts from the page's top to the footer, then through links in the main text, and lastly to the form control boxes.
Prior to September 23, 2018, certain of our PDFs that are not necessary for providing our services were released.
