[Bug 1259756] Re: Not all form elements have labels

 

Spun off Bug #1271301 for search and filter forms

** Description changed:

  For people using screen readers, having a label for every form input is
  essential as they have no other (easy) way of knowing what the input is
  for. Currently there are various form fields in Mahara which do not have
  labels, so either existing labels need to be linked to these inputs or
  new (hidden) ones need to be created.
  
  - "Upload file" in Content -> Profile -> Files
  - New folder name input in Content -> Profile -> Files
  - All "Attach file" labels in Content -> Resume need to be associated with their respective file inputs
- - Filter select boxes in Portfolio -> Skins, Groups -> My Groups, Groups -> Find Friends
  - Collection and page checkboxes when editing permissions for a group
  - Cookie consent -> Types of cookies checkboxes
