[Bug 1606744] [NEW] Accessibility - Text placeholders / missing labels

 

Public bug reported:

Mahara: master

Input text fields should have a label and/or use the 'aria-labelled by'
property to bind multiple inputs to a label.

Please refer to: http://webaim.org/techniques/forms/controls#input

An example where it is needed is in the screen
(artefact/internal/socialprofile.php):

* Social media > New social media account

The input box (id=editprofileform_profiletype_other) next to "Other" is
not linked to a label. Screen readers refer to it as "edit".
