View Pages  CriticalProvide a way to skip repetitive navigation links.Section 508 1194.22 (o)
Without a skip link, screen readers read out the navigation links on every page before reading the page content. Headings can be a substitute in limited circumstances, but they're not used by all screen reader users, and many other assistive technology users have no way to navigate via headings. Add a "Skip to Content" link at the start of the document hidden offscreen by CSS, and made visible on focus, so it's available to keyboard and screen reader users: <a class="accessible" href="#main">[Skip to Content]</a>

View Pages  CriticalThis form control has no associated LABEL element.WCAG2 A F68 Section 508 1194.22 (n)
Add a LABEL tag with the FOR attribute set to the ID of this control. This allows screen readers to tell the user what each control does. Do not wrap LABEL tags around input controls (implicit labels) since this is very unreliable in older screen readers.

View Pages  CriticalThis form has fields without LABEL elements or TITLE attributes.Section 508 1194.22 (n)
Screen readers use LABEL elements or TITLE attributes to describe form fields to non-sighted users. Without these, forms are very hard to use with a screen reader. Forms designed to be completed online shall allow people using assistive technology to access the information, field elements, and functionality required for completion and submission of the form, including all directions and cues.

View Pages  Very ImportantEnsure that foreground and background colors have enough contrast.WCAG2 AA 1.4.3
Some users find it hard to read light gray text on a white background, dark gray text on a black background and white text on a red background.
The foreground/background contrast ratio is 1. The ratio should be 4.5 or more, and for links this applies to both visited and unvisited styles.

View Pages  Very ImportantHeadings should not be empty.WCAG2 AA G130

View Pages  Very ImportantIf you set any of the colors on the BODY tag you must set all of them.WCAG2 AA F24
In HTML the color attributes are TEXT, BGCOLOR, LINK, ALINK and VLINK. In CSS the attributes are COLOR and BACKGROUND-COLOR. Some users have browser defaults set to white text on a black background, so setting one color without setting the others can result in black text on a black background.
