what forms are inaccessible to you?

[deborah]

I was process of fixing an inaccessible form, and went to go swipe some CSS from another form -- and realized that other one also had accessibility problems. Whoops.

So now I'm on a mad dash to do some form accessibility remediation. It's a nice easy task which provides a big net win.

Tell me which forms you have accessibility problems with, and I will add them to my list.

The ones on my current list are the poll creator and the form to submit a support request.

At a minimum, tell me which form causes the problems, and I will play with it. Ideally, tell me

1. which form causes the problems
2. the nature of the problems
3. what browser and browser version you are using
4. what adaptive tech you are using, if any

The friends filter thingum! I realize the longer term goal is to rebuild the entire interface, but since I don't think anyone's figured out how to do that yet, it can definitely be better than it is. I have struggled with it for a decade going back to LJ, so fill in basically every browser and version of Jaws we have lived through since then. The biggest issues are that the dropdowns inexplicably stop talking for no reason I can ever figure out. But only sometimes! I often have to enter forms mode, hit down arrow a couple of times, listen to the silence, then exit forms mode and change cursors to read what has been selected. And once I start moving people in and out of a filter, it gets even less reliable.

If you want me to play with anything and be more precise about what's happening, lmk.

Thanks so much, and I will totally ask you for more precision once I'm playing with it.
