Issue Summary
On the "View page", the textual description is not provided for “Unrestricted” image links.
Steps to Reproduce
- Navigate to the "View page"
- Using a screen reader, navigate to the mentioned image links besides pages.
- Listen that the href value of these image links is announced and its purpose is not communicated.
Screenshot
Actual Results
The "Unrestricted” link lacks textual description. Screen readers announce the href value of links in the absence of appropriately defined textual descriptions. As a result, screen reader users will be unable to identify the purpose of these image links.
Expected Results
Ensure that an appropriate textual description for the image links is provided and completely describes the purpose of these links.
The textual description can be provided by adding a visually hidden text using CSS within the <a> element.
For buttons using inline SVG images, textual description can be added using the <title> and <desc> element.
Alternatively, use the "aria-label" attribute on the <a> element to provide a textual description.
Workaround
Currently there is no known workaround for this behavior. A workaround will be added here when available
