Summary AX: CSS list-style influences role/semantics
Jeff Smith
Reported 2021-06-11 06:00:06 PDT
When a UL element is provided with "list-style: none" in CSS, the semantics of the UL element are removed. The UL is not announced as a list by VoiceOver, it's announced as a group of text. Example: https://codepen.io/jeffsmith/pen/oNZPXGz Three UL elements are provided in this example: * The first is a standard UL with no CSS styling. * The second is a standard UL, with a class added to provide "list-style: none" styling for the list. * The third is similar to the second, with the explicit role="list" added to the UL element. The first list is announced as expected, the second and third are announced as a group of text. Presentational elements (CSS) should not be in a position to be influencing the semantics of HTML and how a screen reader announces those semantics.
