Hi All,
Hope everyone is staying safe and doing well!
I wanted to check if any of you have encountered the issue where NVDA reads
out the title of the dialog twice when the focus is on any of the
interactive elements inside.
Like the example from the link below, where an alert dialog is displayed
upon activating the discard button, NVDA reads out the title of the dialog
twice.
https://www.w3.org/TR/wai-aria-practices/examples/dialog-modal/alertdialog.html
From what we have tested, this seems like a problem with NVDA, as JAWS
announces the title of the dialog only once.
Does this require any specific fix/hack for NVDA or is this something
common with NVDA that we can bypass.
Thanks in advance!
Thanks,
Sudheer

Hi Sudhir,
You can bypass this behavior as it is specific to NVDA and happens in
case of alert dialog. In case of modal dialogs, NVDA reads the title
once correctly.
Always BPositive!

If I change the code in the inspector from role="alertdialog" to
role="dialog", the title still gets announced twice. Where did you hear it
announced once?

Hi Glen,
I heard it with the ARIA dialog pattern.
Always BPositive!
