This PR is extracted from #23346 to address some unclear (I don't
understand) code-belonging concerns.
This PR needs to be backported, otherwise the `aria.js` is too buggy in
some cases. Since there would be two minor conflicts, I will do the
backport manually.
Before: the `aria.js` is still buggy in some cases.
After: tested with AppleVoice, Android TalkBack
* Fix incorrect dropdown init code
* Fix incorrect role element (the menu role should be on the `$menu`
element, but not on the `$focusable`)
* Fix the focus-show-click-hide problem on mobile. Now the language menu
works as expected
* Fix incorrect dropdown template function setting
* Clarify the logic in aria.js
* Hide item's tippy after menu gets hidden
* Fix incorrect tippy `setProps` after `destroy`
* Fix UI lag problem when page gets redirected during menu hiding
animation with screen reader
* Improve comments
* Implement the layout proposed by #19861

This document is used as aria/accessibility(a11y) reference for future developers.
|
|
|
|
There are a lot of a11y problems in the Fomantic UI library. This `aria.js` is used
|
|
as a workaround to make the UI more accessible.
|
|
|
|
The `aria.js` is designed to avoid touching the official Fomantic UI library,
|
|
and to be as independent as possible, so it can be easily modified/removed in the future.
|
|
|
|
To test the aria/accessibility with screen readers, developers can use the following steps:
|
|
|
|
* On macOS, you can use VoiceOver.
|
|
* Press `Command + F5` to turn on VoiceOver.
|
|
* Try to operate the UI with keyboard-only.
|
|
* Use Tab/Shift+Tab to switch focus between elements.
|
|
* Arrow keys to navigate between menu/combobox items (only aria-active, not really focused).
|
|
* Press Enter to trigger the aria-active element.
|
|
* On Android, you can use TalkBack.
|
|
* Go to Settings -> Accessibility -> TalkBack, turn it on.
|
|
* Long-press or press+swipe to switch the aria-active element (not really focused).
|
|
* Double-tap means old single-tap on the aria-active element.
|
|
* Double-finger swipe means old single-finger swipe.
|
|
* TODO: on Windows, on Linux, on iOS
|

# Checkbox
|
|
|
|
## Accessibility-friendly Checkbox
|
|
|
|
The ideal checkboxes should be:
|
|
|
|
```html
|
|
<label><input type="checkbox"> ... </label>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
However, related CSS styles aren't supported (not implemented) yet, so at the moment,
|
|
almost all the checkboxes are still using Fomantic UI checkbox.
|
|
|
|
## Fomantic UI Checkbox
|
|
|
|
```html
|
|
<div class="ui checkbox">
|
|
<input type="checkbox"> <!-- class "hidden" will be added by $.checkbox() -->
|
|
<label>...</label>
|
|
</div>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Then the JS `$.checkbox()` should be called to make it work with keyboard and label-clicking,
|
|
then it works like the ideal checkboxes.
|
|
|
|
There is still a problem: Fomantic UI checkbox is not friendly to screen readers,
|
|
so we add IDs to all the Fomantic UI checkboxes automatically by JS.
|
|
If the `label` part is empty, then the checkbox needs to get the `aria-label` attribute manually.
|
|
|
|
# Dropdown
|
|
|
|
## Fomantic UI Dropdown
|
|
|
|
Fomantic Dropdown is designed to be used for many purposes:
|
|
|
|
* Menu (the profile menu in navbar, the language menu in footer)
|
|
* Popup (the branch/tag panel, the review box)
|
|
* Simple `<select>` , used in many forms
|
|
* Searchable option-list with static items (used in many forms)
|
|
* Searchable option-list with dynamic items (ajax)
|
|
* Searchable multiple selection option-list with dynamic items: the repo topic setting
|
|
* More complex usages, like the Issue Label selector
|
|
|
|
Fomantic Dropdown requires that the focus must be on its primary element.
|
|
If the focus changes, it hides or panics.
|
|
|
|
At the moment, `aria.js` only tries to partially resolve the a11y problems for dropdowns with items.
|
|
|
|
There are different solutions:
|
|
|
|
* combobox + listbox + option:
|
|
* https://www.w3.org/WAI/ARIA/apg/patterns/combobox/
|
|
* A combobox is an input widget with an associated popup that enables users to select a value for the combobox from
|
|
a collection of possible values. In some implementations, the popup presents allowed values, while in other implementations,
|
|
the popup presents suggested values, and users may either select one of the suggestions or type a value.
|
|
* menu + menuitem:
|
|
* https://www.w3.org/WAI/ARIA/apg/patterns/menubar/
|
|
* A menu is a widget that offers a list of choices to the user, such as a set of actions or functions.
|
|
|
|
The current approach is: detect if the dropdown has an input,
|
|
if yes, it works like a combobox, otherwise it works like a menu.
|
|
Multiple selection dropdown is not well-supported yet, it needs more work.
|
|
|
|
Some important pages for dropdown testing:
|
|
|
|
* Home(dashboard) page, the "Create Repo" / "Profile" / "Language" menu.
|
|
* Create New Repo page, a lot of dropdowns as combobox.
|
|
* Collaborators page, the "permission" dropdown (the old behavior was not quite good, it just works).

```html
|
|
<!-- read-only dropdown -->
|
|
<div class="ui dropdown"> <!-- focused here, then it's not perfect to use aria-activedescendant to point to the menu item -->
|
|
<input type="hidden" ...>
|
|
<div class="text">Default</div>
|
|
<div class="menu" tabindex="-1"> <!-- "transition hidden|visible" classes will be added by $.dropdown() and when the dropdown is working -->
|
|
<div class="item active selected">Default</div>
|
|
<div class="item">...</div>
|
|
</div>
|
|
</div>
|
|
|
|
<!-- search input dropdown -->
|
|
<div class="ui dropdown">
|
|
<input type="hidden" ...>
|
|
<input class="search" autocomplete="off" tabindex="0"> <!-- focused here -->
|
|
<div class="text"></div>
|
|
<div class="menu" tabindex="-1"> <!-- "transition hidden|visible" classes will be added by $.dropdown() and when the dropdown is working -->
|
|
<div class="item selected">...</div>
|
|
<div class="item">...</div>
|
|
</div>
|
|
</div>
|
|
```
