ARIA input fields must have an accessible name
What is the problem?
The aria-input-field-name rule ensures that all ARIA input fields have a clear and accessible name.
Impacted Groups
Why is this important?
Screen reader users rely on these names to understand the purpose of input fields and what kind of information to enter. Without clear names, users may be confused or unable to complete forms correctly.
How to solve this issue
To fix this, provide a clear and concise name for each ARIA input field. This can be done using the aria-label or aria-labelledby attributes. By following this rule, you can ensure that all users can easily understand and interact with your forms.
