Hi All,
 
I have a scenario where I can't use visual text label does title attribute to input field or a hidden label will be a better option to implement as per accessibility guideline.
 
Thanks in advance.

I would default to hidden label in that situation: It tends to be more
robust in different situations, and doesn't cause mouse-over text to appear
which can confuse the purpose of it.

Title attribute, if you want a visible tooltip, can work as an accessible name or aria-label if you don’t want a visible tooltip. Visually hidden labels work too, though I’ve seen that if they’re positioned off screen VoiceOver for iOS’ focus gets messed up visually. Test on your target devices.

So, to those who are recommending the title attribute, I'm wondering
whether this article from the Paciello Group is relevant, so may be
worth considering. It's from January of this year:

Hey Jennifer, so that’s one article from a TPG employee saying don’t use the title attribute.

Here’s an article from another TPG employee saying DO use the title attribute ;) http://juicystudio.com/article/hidden-label-firefox-bug.php

I also disagree that the title attribute is bad and posted that comment on Steve’s article you linked to.

Another option is to use the aria-label attribute:

http://www.w3.org/TR/wai-aria/states_and_properties#aria-label

It works just like the title attribute, but produces no tooltip.

Example:

<input type="text" name="firstname" size="15" aria-label="First Name">

attribute and an aria label to support the maximum combination of browsers

I was simply seeking to present a wider perspective; your response

JAWS has support aria-label for quite a while, I think as early as Jaws 12.

JAWS will use aria-label even if IE ignores it.

Hey Jennifer, no I’m not aiming for a personal debate. I’m just trying to point out that all Accessibility experts, even those in the same company have differing opinions/evidence for why to use or not use the title attribute.

I’m always open for a good Accessibility debate however :)

Hey Jon, I recommend using both attributes if you want the visual tooltip reinforcement for low vision magnification users and other sighted users. Does aria-label work with other screen readers besides JAWS, NVDA, and VoiceOver? E.g. Window Eyes? Also aria-label will not work for Dragon Naturally Speaking, not sure it title attribute works well their either.

There’s no harm in using both aria-label and title, the UA/AT should only pick one as the accessible name.

Paul,

Thank you for your response.

If you use title attribute there is no reason to use aria-label, since the title attribute is part of the accessible name calculation for aria enabled technologies, and technologies that are not supporting aria would ignore the aria-label attribute anyway.

http://www.w3.org/TR/wai-aria/roles#namecalculation

Some developers don't want the tooltip for various reasons, so aria-label attribute hopefully makes adding a label easier for them, or the tooltip (title attribute) content is really providing additional information beyond what the label is providing.

Also usually the title is treated as a hint or help text so it should
usually be different than the short, concise aria-label.

That's often the case, but unless I'm missing something (quite possible) the
advice in both these articles seems fairly consistent with regard to the
title attribute on form controls.

In providing an alternative to a hidden label (because of a Firefox CSS
bug), Gez's article says:

"We generally recommend the title attribute or the aria-label attribute if
there is no visible label at all (such as checkboxes arranged in grids that
make sense visually)."

In a list of exceptions where the title attribute is helpful, Steve's
article includes:

"Providing a programmatically associated label for a control in situations
where a visible text label would be redundant."

I think Steve’s article is just a bit more anti title attribute.

E.g. the tl;dr says:

If you want to hide content from mobile and tablet users as well as assistive tech users and keyboard only users, use the title attribute.

So I don’t want people to be scared away from the title attribute. I’ve heard many times that the title attribute should NEVER be used so I’m tying to dispel that myth a bit :)

There is no disagreement between Gez and I on when to use a title
attribute, as stated in my article (
http://blog.paciellogroup.com/2013/01/using-the-html-title-attribute-updated/
):

Examples of title attribute use that are USEFUL:

- Labelling frame or iframe elements:
- <frame *title="navigation"*>
- Providing a programmatically associated label for a control in
situations where a visible text label would be redundant:
- <input type="text" *title="search"*> <input type="submit"
value="search">
- labelling controls in data
tables<http://www.paciellogroup.com/presentations/techshare07/?slideSelect=0#slide28>;

HI Holli, this is not good advice as the title attribute only maps to the
accessible name in accessibility APIs when there is no other source of an
accessible name [1], when there is it will be mapped to the accessible
description, so in this case

<input title="poot" type="text" aria-label="poot">

you end up with

accessible name from aria-label = poot
accessible description from title = poot

which can lead to duplicate announcement.

Hi Paul,

"I’m just trying to point out that all Accessibility experts, even those in
the same company have differing opinions/evidence for why to use or not use
the title attribute."

While I don't claim to be an expert what I do claim is that when I publish

of features and the standards defining the implementations of those
features.

Knowing the research on a topic is always the best start for expert-hood,
you might not claim it, but I would on your behalf ;-)

So overall it looks like there are a couple of options for hidden labels
then:

1. Having a label and hiding it off-screen, but avoiding the Firefox bug.
This isn't a good option if you need to cater for right-to-left languages
or notice performance issues on mobile devices.

2. Using title on the input.

I think we've generally done the first and not triggered the bug because we
use overflow, we just moved it way off screen. We haven't had to cater for
RTL languages though, or use it enough per page to trigger performance
issues.

Perhaps in future when we can rely on user agents understanding aria-label,
and then use title for explanatory text? e.g. <input type="text"
aria-label="First name" title="Required">

Cheers,

-Alastair

Hey Steve, sorry I made the wrong assumption about your’s and Gez’s opinions on the title attribute. I did want to link to his articled because it shows how much easier and less buggy it is to use a title attribute or aria-label as the accessible name. I’m not really seeing the benefit of visually hidden explicit labels any longer.

Good point that the title will turn into the accessible description if used with an aria-label. So it makes more sense to not duplicate the title and aria-label values but instead make the aria-label short and concise since it’s the name and make the title more like a hint or help text that is a bit longer and explains what the control does.

Another way I’ve used the title attribute recently, not related to form inputs, is to handle the fact that iOS does not read aria-expanded.

So for a UI control that expands and collapses a section the code is something like:

<a href=# aria-expanded=false title=“Expands the section”>Blah</a>

&

<a href=# aria-expanded=true title=“Collapses the section”>Blah</a>

This way most ARIA enabled screen readers will speak “Collapsed or Expanded”, all will speak the title, iOS will only speak the title not the expanded attribute.

Something to think about.

Thanks!
