      Actual Results

      The "X" image buttons associated with the edit fields lack textual description. Screen readers will announce these buttons as "Unlabelled". As a result, screen reader users will be unable to identify the purpose of these buttons.

      Expected Results

      Screen readers should announce the textual description of these image buttons that describe their purpose for the users.
      Ensure that an appropriate textual description for the image buttons is provided and completely describes the purpose of these buttons.
      The textual description can be provided by adding a visually hidden text using CSS within the button element.
      For buttons using inline SVG images, textual descriptions can be added using the <title> and <desc> elements.
      Alternatively, use the "aria-label" attribute on the button element to provide a textual description.
