Actual Results
When a user activates the "Filter" button, the visual label is not available for the “Find Files” input field. As a result, screen reader users might not understand the purpose of the input field effectively.
Expected Results
Provide a unique and descriptive label for the discussed form field using the <label> element. This will help screen reader users understand the purpose of the form field.
If this solution is not feasible, then provide an appropriate aria-label such as "Find Files“.
Note: Before implementing the changes in a label, confirm this with your content design team.
Code snippet
<label for="select">Find Files</label> <input type="text" autofocus="autofocus" maxlength="1000" id="select" size="30" class="filter-files" placeholder="Find files" style="display: inline-block;">
Workaround
Currently, there is no known workaround for this behaviour. A workaround will be added here when available.
