Non-accessible content
General
- Some forms lack labels for input fields.
- Some forms use only colour to indicate whether a field is disabled or mandatory. These lack other alternatives.
- In some forms, it may be unclear when a field is in focus.
- In certain cases, CAPTCHA is used to verify that a person is attempting to access content. These have not been assessed from an accessibility perspective.
- Some forms lack programmatically determined options to recognize mandatory fields.
- Some older video recordings may lack required audio or text alternatives.
- Older downloadable files are not adapted for accessibility.
- Some pages may have deficiencies in how the reading order of the page can be programmatically determined.
- Certain components on the website, such as tables and calendars, have elements that lack alternatives when the functionality is determined by the element's position within the component, or by colour choices. For example, forward and backward arrows in some tables lack text descriptions.
- Some parts of the website have insufficient contrast between foreground and background colours. This applies, for instance, to links in the footer.
- In some cases, text is displayed over a background image that contains text or distracting graphic patterns.
- The research data catalogue may contain descriptions of research data written in a language other than the surrounding text, but this is not marked in code, causing issues for screen readers.
- It is possible to increase line spacing, letter spacing, and font size, except for in the filter menu in the research data catalogue.
