Actual Results
The "?" image button is not accessible for screen reader and keyboard-only users. The role such as link or button is not provided programmatically which makes it inaccessible. As a result, screen reader or keyboard-only users will not be able to interact with it.
Expected Results
Apply the following changes:
- Provide native <button> element in the source code of the "help".
- Modify the script and make sure that it should be accessible through keyboard and screen reader.
