Accessibility – 508 Support
Text edit controls have to be used in combination with the label element which points to the assigned text edit control. This ensures, that screenreaders are aware of the relationship between the both elements and can read the correct label to the according text edit control.
- Keyboard: Text edit controls are inserted into the accessibility hierarchy by default.
- Default Description: Is provided by the HTMLB rendering engine.
- Application-specific Description: Set an additional description using the setTooltip method if needed.
- Label: Has to be connected to a label control (use method setLabelFor for identifying the corresponding text edit control).
