Accessibility Audit Report
This accessibility audit was conducted on wyomingada.wicresources.org using axe-core v4.3.5. The audit identified 7 accessibility violations across 22 tested elements, with a compliance rate of 68%.
Remove user-scalable=no from viewport meta tag to allow zooming.
Update button colors to meet WCAG AA contrast requirements (4.5:1).
Implement proper landmark elements and heading hierarchy.
Key Performance Indicators
The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 define three levels of compliance: Level A (basic), Level AA (intermediate), and Level AAA (advanced). Each level builds upon the previous one, with Level AA being the most commonly required standard for most websites and applications.
Description: The viewport meta tag prevents users from zooming content on mobile devices, making the site inaccessible to users with visual impairments.
Solution: Remove user-scalable=no from the viewport meta tag to allow content zooming on mobile devices.
Description: Text elements have insufficient color contrast ratios below WCAG 2.1 AA standards, making content difficult to read for users with visual impairments.
Affected Elements: Cookie policy buttons with contrast ratio of 2.26:1 (required: 4.5:1)
Solution: Increase color contrast to meet WCAG 2.1 AA standards by using darker text colors or lighter background colors.
Description: Heading levels do not follow a logical sequence, making it difficult for screen reader users to understand document structure.
Affected Elements: Footer heading with invalid heading order
Solution: Ensure heading levels increase by only one level at a time (h1 → h2 → h3 → h4).
Description: Multiple landmark and structure issues affecting navigation for screen reader users.
Issues:
Solution: Implement proper landmark structure with main, navigation, and complementary landmarks to improve navigation.
