2026-08-27

Accessibility Audit Report

https://example.invalid/community-services

Automated evidence, not a conformance determination. Passing a narrow automated check does not establish that an entire WCAG success criterion passes. Manual evaluation with assistive technology and representative users remains necessary.

#1 Critical 1.1.1: Non-text Content Level A 508

1 instance Guided Fix ✗ Open ▾

⚠ What’s Wrong

<img> element is missing an 'alt' attribute.

#2 Critical 3.3.2: Labels or Instructions Level A 508

1 instance Guided Fix ✗ Open ▾

⚠ What’s Wrong

Form control is not programmatically associated with an accessible label.

Selector: #email

👥 Why It Matters

Screen reader users will not know what data to enter into the form field.

🔧 How to Fix

Provide a `<label>` with a `for` attribute matching the input's `id`, wrap the input in a `<label>` tag, or use an `aria-label` attribute.

#3 Moderate 1.3.5: Identify Input Purpose Level AA

1 instance Guided Fix ✗ Open ▾

⚠ What’s Wrong

Input field (<input id='email' name='email' type='email'>) is missing an 'autocomplete' attribute or it's empty.

Selector: #email

👥 Why It Matters

Autofill helps users with cognitive or mobility disabilities by reducing typing effort and entry errors.

🔧 How to Fix

Add an `autocomplete` attribute. Based on heuristics, `autocomplete='email'` might be suitable.

#4 Moderate 2.4.5: Multiple Ways Level AA 508

1 instance Manual Fix ✗ Open ▾

⚠ What’s Wrong

Page may not provide multiple ways to locate content (found 1 mechanism(s)).

Selector: html > body

👥 Why It Matters

Users with different abilities and preferences need multiple ways to find content (navigation, search, sitemap, etc.).

🔧 How to Fix

Provide at least two of: navigation menu, search functionality, sitemap link, table of contents.
