They do not tell a blind user what the option is, but rather is defaults to the product name then the option. RootWebArea "ECT premium store: Drill Bit Pointy, Drill Bits, DrillBit01" generic generic Section generic radio generic StaticText "Pack of 3" This should say the option name, in this case "Saver Pack" then Pack of 3. Drop down list seem to work and be accessible, but radio button are not currently. As here is the computer which has a drop down box ea "ECT premium store: Build Your Own, Desktop PCs, pc001" generic generic Section generic combobox "Monitor" MenuListPopup menuitem "Please Select..." menuitem "15" Standard" menuitem "17" Trinitron (+$22.00)" menuitem "19" Flatron (+$75.00)" menuitem "21" Supertron (+$185.0 Tells me this is a Monitor with 4 choices, where radio button just says Product name, no Option name and then just the color Tested with Chrome Lighthouse under Accessible Scott

But as the changes are getting a bit more involved now, would you be able to get these from the Beta version now? If so I'll add them to the Beta and let you know how to access it. Another question, the change we made for the thanks page adding the role="main" tag . . . would that need to be added to all pages? It seems logical if it's necessary on the thanks page.

According to what I'm learning on ADA WCAG2.1 And seeing on many of the sample pages I'm looking at they the following sections Skip to role=Main Skip to Navigation role=Nav Skip to Footer role=footer Applying the ADA widget from Accessibe or Userway overlays a hidden skip menu that pops up when you hit tab and allows the user of a keyboard or screen reader to tab to those 3 main sections.

You can get the Beta here... https://www.ecommercetemplates.com/updaters.asp?betas=true You will need all files now and to also run the updatestore.asp/php script in your browser. Regarding the role="main" I've been having a think about that and I think the best way to handle this really is in the template. That is, whatever the container is around the "body" editable region, add the role to that. For instance in once template this would be... <div class="product_listing"> <!-- #BeginEditable "body" --> Content <!-- #EndEditable --> </div> So just add the role there like this... <div class="product_listing" role="main"> <!-- #BeginEditable "body" --> Content <!-- #EndEditable --> </div> The reason is that there isn't a single container in each page that I can add this to. Any problems just let me know. Vince Click Here for Shopping Cart Software Click Here to sign up for our newsletter Click Here for the latest updater
