Actual Result
The form fields that caused the error are indicated by red text only, without an additional non-color indication that the field caused an error. As a result, a colorblind user may not be able to identify the required fields.
Expected Result
To make it easier for colorblind users to understand that an error has occurred, an additional method can be provided, such as using an image-icon (role="image") with an accessible name (aria-label="error"). This informative image can convey that an error has occurred.
Code snippet
<span role="image" aria-label="error"><div class="error control-form-error" id="chainName_error" data-field-name="chainName">Please enter a plan name.</div></span>
