[META] Accessibility Issues

[wesruv]

• Make sure all links have an obvious :active state
  • Some main menu items are very subtle
  • Cards are a little too subtle, IMO, maybe use a outline halo?
• Site needs to be keyboard navigatable
  • Navigating main menu with the keyboard is currently confusing, you can tab to hidden menu items and dropdown does not open
• Main menu toggle has no text for non-sighted users
• Form labels appear to be missing on text inputs (they don't have to be visible to sighted users, just need to exist)
• Some search forms have buttons with no text (e.g. Directory)
• Fair number of pages are missing headings or h1's

I was going to work on making the menu keyboard navigatable, shouldn't be too hard, just have to expand some of the mouse logic to work with focus.

@wesruv, are these issues still issues?

[wesruv]

Menu issues are fixed

Form labels are still an issue (See WAVE Accessibility plugin for whatever browser):

Same with empty button text

Directory is missing an H1 as well as a lot of other pages. Not having a headline is an accessibility issue, so the design needs to support that somehow. I believe there's a design that tries to address how headlines could look on a card driven page... I'll try to track it down.

Here's the mockup of what that could look like, it was a quick and dirty thing:
