HIGH PRIORITY — Icon-only buttons with no accessible name:
- _toggle_view.html.erb: aria-label on Templates/Submissions view buttons
- _template.html.erb: aria-label on move, restore, edit, clone, archive/delete
(also fixes bug: was aria_label: t('restore') for all, now dynamic)
- _title.html.erb: aria-label on move-folder pencil link
- submissions/show.html.erb: aria-label on download options dropdown toggle,
audit log link, event log link, edit submitter pencil in parties view
- submit_form/show.html.erb: aria-label on scroll decline button (mobile icon-only)
- contenteditable.vue: span→role=button + aria-label + keyboard handlers (Enter/Space)
on edit pencil; aria-hidden on decorative icon
- signature_step.vue: aria-label + aria-hidden on minimize link
MEDIUM PRIORITY — Form inputs with missing labels:
- text_step.vue: conditional aria-label fallback on input/textarea when no
visible label rendered (showFieldNames=false or field has no name)
- area.vue: aria-label on multiple-select checkbox (matches radio pattern)
MEDIUM PRIORITY — Images with generic hardcoded alt text:
- area.vue: replace 'Image'/'Stamp'/'Knowledge-based authentication' with
t('image')/t('stamp')/t('kba') for i18n consistency
MEDIUM PRIORITY — Dropdown/menu ARIA:
- _navbar.html.erb: aria-controls="user-menu-list" on user menu trigger;
id="user-menu-list" on menu <ul>
MEDIUM PRIORITY — Form grouping:
- storage_settings/index.html.erb: wrap radio buttons in <fieldset><legend>
LOW PRIORITY — Required field indicator:
- mobile_fields.vue: replace tooltip span with <abbr title="required"> pattern
LOW PRIORITY — Keyboard accessibility:
- templates_folders/edit.html.erb: tabindex="0" on folder toggle label
i18n: add download_options key

All focusable elements in the submission card now announce document
status, submitter identity, and action context to screen readers:
Status badges: "Awaiting – mpaiva+test@clearcompany.com"
Name links: "mpaiva+test@clearcompany.com – Awaiting"
Edit (icon): "Edit mpaiva+test@clearcompany.com"
Sign Now: "Sign Now – mpaiva+test@clearcompany.com"
View: "View – mpaiva+test@clearcompany.com"
Archive: "Archive – mpaiva+test@clearcompany.com"
Overlay link (invisible full-row cover) marked aria-hidden + tabindex=-1
to eliminate the duplicate focus stop and keyboard trap.
Applies to both single-submitter and multi-submitter row variants.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
All buttons now include the template name for context so screen reader
users know which template they are acting on:
- Preferences (icon-only): aria-label added - was completely unlabelled
- Link, Archive, Clone, Edit, Preview, Restore: aria-label adds template
name (e.g. "Edit - NDA-accessible")
- Inner icon/text spans marked aria-hidden to prevent double-announcement

The label element used as the upload trigger had no tabindex, making it
unreachable by keyboard. Add tabindex="0" and role="button" so it is
included in Tab order and correctly announced by screen readers.

All DaisyUI dropdown content elements had tabindex="0" which put the
entire menu container in the keyboard tab order, causing our :focus-visible
rule to outline the whole dropdown box rather than individual menu items.
Changed to tabindex="-1" in 14 files (3 ERB + 11 Vue):
- submissions_filters/_filter_button.html.erb
- shared/_templates_order_select.html.erb
- submissions/show.html.erb
- template_builder/{payment_settings,field_type,field,builder,
custom_field,upload,google_drive_document_settings,area,
font_modal(x2),field_submitter(x2),mobile_fields}.vue
tabindex="-1" keeps mouse-click focus working (DaisyUI :focus-within
CSS still fires) while removing the container from the Tab order.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Change tabindex="0" -> tabindex="-1" on <ul class="menu"> so the
dropdown container is not in the keyboard tab order (user_menu.js
handles focus programmatically; tabindex="-1" still allows mouse
click to satisfy DaisyUI :focus-within dropdown CSS)
- Add .menu li > a:focus-visible and .menu li > button:focus-visible
to global focus rule to override DaisyUI's menu-item focus selectors
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Add tabindex="0" to both decline <label> buttons so they enter the
tab order and :focus-visible applies (labels are not natively focusable)
- Add .btn:focus-visible alongside :focus-visible in SCSS to override
DaisyUI's higher-specificity .btn:focus-visible rule, ensuring the
global 8px blue ring applies to all DaisyUI buttons
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Audit found 10 overrides across 8 files that suppressed or replaced
the global focus ring. Removed all of them:
- templates/_file_form.html.erb: remove outline-none + focus:ring-*
- templates_clone/_form.html.erb: same
- templates_preferences/_recipients.html.erb: same
- template_builder/contenteditable.vue: remove outline-none
- template_builder/document.vue: remove focus:ring-2 from tab buttons
- template_builder/area.vue: remove focus:ring-1 from 3 elements
- template_builder/font_modal.vue: remove focus:ring-2 from contenteditable
- submission_form/phone_step.vue: remove focus-within:outline from container
All interactive elements now rely solely on the global :focus-visible
rule (8px solid rgb(14,99,200), 4px offset) in application.scss/form.scss.

- Point skip links in form and plain layouts to #tab-pdf (the first
tab button, naturally focusable as a <button>)
- Add tabindex="-1" fallback <div id="tab-pdf"> when has_full_text is
false (scanned PDFs with no extractable text) so the skip link
always has a valid target
- Remove now-unused tabindex="-1" from #scrollbox and #main-content
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Add tabindex="-1" to #scrollbox in submit_form/show so focus lands
there after skip link activation (not just scroll position)
- Add skip link to plain layout (used by submissions/show)
- Add id="main-content" tabindex="-1" to submissions/show outer div
as the skip link target

Replace raw String interpolation of aria-labelledby attribute with
inline quoted attribute interpolation, which BetterHtml permits.
Always render the attribute since the ID is always generated; a
reference to a non-existent element is harmless when no title is set.

Replace raw string interpolation of aria-labelledby in the turbo-modal
tag with html_attributes() helper to satisfy BetterHtml security linter.

Custom elements are display:inline by default, so margin-top on the
inner tablist div was not producing visible spacing. Move the margin
to the document-tabs element itself with an inline style (immune to
Tailwind recompile timing) and add class="block" so it participates
in the block flow and the margin takes effect.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The header has margin-bottom: -16px which pulls the next element up,
so mt-10 (40px) only produced ~24px of visible gap. mt-16 (64px) gives
~48px of actual space between the heading and the tab group.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The tablist was sticky top-[60px] so it followed the user while scrolling.
Removing sticky/z-index/background/offset classes lets it sit naturally in
the document flow directly below the header.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
primary color (#e4e0e1) is near-white against the base-100 background
(#faf7f5), giving ~1.1:1 contrast - essentially invisible. Replace with
text-base-content + border-neutral (#291334, ~15.9:1 against base-100).
Active state distinction is now conveyed by border-neutral underline +
font-semibold (not by color alone, satisfying WCAG 1.4.1 Use of Color).
Inactive tabs retain font-medium + border-transparent.
Also remove hover:text-primary from inactive tabs - primary is near-white
so that hover would have made inactive tab text invisible on hover.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
text-base-content/60 (~4.1:1 against base-100) fails the 4.5:1 AA minimum
for normal-weight text. Change inactive tab to text-base-content (full
opacity, ~14:1) so contrast is unambiguously compliant. Visual distinction
between active/inactive now relies on the colored border underline + primary
text color, not opacity dimming. Hover updated to hover:text-primary to
preview the tab's active color before clicking.
Affects: submissions/show, submit_form/show, document_tabs.js, document.vue.

Extracts PDF text during upload via Pdfium and stores it in attachment
metadata (pdf.pages_text), then surfaces it in visually-hidden sr-only
regions in both the signing form and submission preview views. Also adds
alt text to template builder page images and ARIA role/label to the
page-container custom element.

This commit establishes the foundation for WCAG 2.2 Level AA compliance:
Infrastructure:
- Add axe-core-rspec gem for automated accessibility testing
- Create spec/accessibility/ directory structure
- Add accessibility_helpers.rb with custom WCAG test helpers
- Add comprehensive testing documentation (README.md, SETUP_NOTES.md)
Semantic Landmarks (WCAG 2.4.1):
- Add <main> landmark with id="main-content" to application layout
- Add <nav> landmark with aria-label to navbar
- Add skip navigation link for keyboard users
- Skip link uses focus:translate-y-0 to appear only on keyboard focus
These changes address critical barriers for screen reader and keyboard users.
