Hello,
We are having some trouble with NVDA reading form validation error messages. Have tried both role="alert" and aria-live="rude" but neither is being read. Is there something I'm missing in how to use it?
This code is on a login validation.
<div role="alert" >Login error message here</div>
<input type="submit" value="submit">
I can perceive the error message on this demo just fine: http://www.oaa-accessibility.org/example/1/
Thanks!
