Frames must have a unique title attribute
What is the problem?
The frame-title-unique rule ensures that each <iframe> and <frame> element has a unique title attribute.
Impacted Groups
Why is this important?
Screen reader users rely on titles to understand the context of content within frames. If titles are not unique or missing, screen readers may have difficulty identifying and navigating between different frames, making it harder for users to access the information they need.
How to solve this issue
To fix this issue, provide a unique and descriptive title attribute for each <iframe> and <frame> element. This helps screen readers identify and announce the content of each frame, improving the overall user experience for people with disabilities.
