Description
Issue Summary
The Menu bar link to the source page is announced inappropriately to the screen reader users.
Steps to Reproduce
- In the left sidebar section select any page from the available space.
- In the page header section, keeping the screen reader on, navigate to the "Edit" link to edit the page.
- Observe the "Edit" link announced by the screen reader.
Actual Results
The "Edit" link in the Menu bar section on the active page, is announced inappropriately to the screen reader users. The link is announced as "Edit (Type 'e')", etc. which makes it for the screen reader user difficult to understand the functionality associated with it.
Note: This is a JAWS-specific issue.
Expected Results
Provide an appropriate title or aria-label to the link such as "Edit Type 'e'", etc. to the particular links. Ensure the links are announced appropriately to the screen reader users.
Refer to the following Code snippet:
<li class="ajs-button normal"> <a id="editPageLink" href="/wiki/pages/editblogpost.action?pageId=1014202454" rel="nofollow" class="aui-button aui-button-subtle edit" accesskey="e" title="Edit (Type 'e')" aria-label="Edit Type 'e'" resolved=""> <span> <span class="aui-icon aui-icon-small aui-iconfont-edit"></span> <u>E</u>dit </span></a> </li>
