    Actual Results

    In the Business Services section for the available search filters, when the screen reader tries to interact with the Combobox, it is announced as a button for the filter "button" and for the search input field as "Edit" text. Additionally, the screen reader does not announce the current value of Combobox, drop down item names, or placeholder texts. The focus does not move into the Combobox when it is active. The focus is received into the options menu after navigating the whole page. This instance will create confusion for the assistive technology user and they would not be able to use the filter element effectively.

    Expected Results

    Few of the following labels and roles could be added to the following elements :

    • A role="combobox" could be added to the <div> element.
    • The dropdown menu should announce the label it is associated with.
    • For this case, when the users focus to enter the Dropdown menu, it should announce content such as "Select a filter for Business Services ". This will help the assistive technology user to understand the relation between the label and the dropdown menu.
    • A working example for accessible Autocomplete Combobox could be found at: https://www.w3.org/TR/wai-aria-practices-1.2/examples/combobox/combobox-autocomplete-list.html

    Workaround

    Currently, there is no known workaround for this behaviour. A workaround will be added here when available.
