dialog demo page

Steps to Reproduce: 
1. Turn on VoiceOver on macOS or iOS latest stable public versions. 
2. Visit http://pauljadam.com/demos/dialog.html in Safari and open the modal dialog. 
3. Manually move VoiceOver screen reader focus to the <p> text "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog."

Actual Results: 
1. VoiceOver skips over the text "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog." and cannot focus on that text or read it manually. 

Expected Results:
1. VoiceOver focuses and reads the text "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog."
