This issue causes non-compliance with section 508, which is a requirement for state and federal government entities.

We must move to labelled-by, but need more update here, or put the label directly to the question text for "single answer".

There are a label for each input : can you show me the 508 compliance link ?

Section 508 law pertaining to form labels: http://www.section508.gov/section-508-standards-guide#Web - refer to (n)
Good site to show technique: http://webaim.org/techniques/forms/controls

I know webaim and http://wave.webaim.org ....

This part of section don't show a "not 508" compliance for LS.

I know LS have some accessibility optimisation, but we can not do it great actually. Here : i think we need labelled-by system. Not other.

Or a "accessibility" plugin.

Leave it, but in devloppement for a future release.

PS: maybe the sentence i bad.

But actually it's :
A big sentence/ explanation
< label >Your answer</ label> INPUT

"Your answer" is translatable.

Actually we need:

• Label on question for 'one question"
• fieldset for other question type

PS:
QUOTE:
Page headings and labels for form and interactive controls are informative. Avoid duplicating heading (e.g., "More Details") or label text (e.g., "First Name") unless the structure provides adequate differentiation between them.

http://webaim.org/standards/wcag/checklist#sc2.4.6

Its' avoid, and not "forbidden". IPut the question text before is OK.

PS: we don't have [required] etc ...

Think we can add label to question text and remove the lable of the answer with http://bugs.limesurvey.org/view.php?id=9500 in a plugin.

This surely Broke all core template, then need : a plugin + a template.

I work on such plugin when 2.06 is out (9500 is near ending dev).

Is there any idea on when 2.06 may be launched?
You mentioned putting the question text before the question (without the label for) but screen readers won't read it without the 'label for" association.
Thank you!

I don't understand :

We have :
QUESTION BLOCK
The question text filled by the admin
< label > Answer< /label>< input >
END OF QUESTION BLOCK

Screen reader's read the estion text BEFORE reading label.

2.06 is out in alpha version actually.

We have too

• the "star" to replace by "This question is mandatory" for screen reader
• Show the list of errors at start of the page
• Show if there are error in "title" when submitting and return to same page.

Etc ....

I'm testing your plugin.

• Labels for text questions work fine
• The fieldset for multiple answers is broken, please include the question as a legend in the fieldset and make sure the legend is the first element in this fieldset. Then, put a label around every answer. As it is now, the fieldset doen't have an effect for screenreaders
• Please indicate required questions by putting an aria-required attribute on the related input elements
• Please consider markign invalid answers by aria-invalid, but make sure the invalid state is not triggered on first page load e.g. if a user hasn't entered anything in the field yet
• Please check the hide and jshide classes, now they are still visible for screenreader users

I looked at your code, but I'm not familiar enough with LimeSurvey to include this improvements in your plugin so far, otherwise I would supply a patch.

Fixed : empty fieldset in last GIT version https://git.framasoft.org/SondagePro-LimeSurvey-plugin/moreAccessibility/commit/5b1301ed7605018ef00314e16ac7cb19cb0557a8

For aria-required : i have a 'required' system in JS BECAUSE a required value can be not reuired with Exepression Manager
For aria-invalid : don't have possibility actually to fix it : EM js is broken
hide class: yes : the purpose of this class is to be shown for screenreaders , unsure fo jshide

Ps: i think i make a SkeletonQuest with fieldset and legend inside. A better system

Dev team decision is to report this to 3.0 ....
Sorry .

BUT : i improve moreAccessibility plugin more and more :)

HTML flow has been rewritten

It's not because HTML is updated is better than before in term in accessibility.

sure, but this bug is no more relevant, there is no more tags like :
"<label for="answer685328X431X4695" class="hide label">Please choose</label>"

No, it's for "single" question type .

If you remove it : 508 issue : https://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20-TECHS/H44.html
If you leave it : this issue : the label is not the best one.

Fixed in 2.06 with plugin https://git.framasoft.org/SondagePro-LimeSurvey-plugin/moreAccessibility/blob/master/moreAccessibility.php#L69

See https://bugs.limesurvey.org/view.php?id=5781 too

original bug is no more valid.
don't hesitate to create a new one corresponding to the new HTML flow.
