Bug 39502: Web Usability: Decorative Images Do Not Need ALT Text
A accessibility audit has highlighted that some of the decorative images on
the opac have alt text which is often followed by a spen that also contains the
same
text. This results in screen readers reading this information twice.
The suggested solution is to set the alt text to null in these instances.
Test Plan:
Prior to applying patch:
1) Navigate to Koha OPAC
2) Carry out a search
3) On one of the records right click on the Material Type: under the heading
4) Select Inspect
5) Note that the image has an alt text that matches the span that follows
6) Click on the item title and repeat the process for the icon below the
contributors.
7) Scroll down to the holdings table and repeat the process for the image in
the Item Type column
8) Apply the patch
9) Repeat the steps above and notice that the alt is now null in order to
ignored by screen readers
11) Note that for the Dev tools may show alt but if you right click on the page
and select View Page Source you will see that the code is alt="" as expected by
screen readers
12) Note that for alt tags that have been updated in the xsl files e.g. the
small icons that follow 'Material Type: ' may be cached.
