Rustdoc search box fails accessability guidelines #31060
Description
Background links: https://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20-TECHS/H32.html for a11y, http://doc.rust-lang.org/std/ for rustdoc search. Before typing anything:
After typing a query:
Basically, we currently implement the searchbox by using JS to hook into the submission: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/blob/master/src/librustdoc/html/static/main.js#L737-L741
So we're not providing a 'submit' button. But we're supposed to.
I'm not sure of the best way to resolve this, exactly. I think the plan would be:
- create an
<input type="submit"> - hide it with CSS
- have it trigger that JS instead
Does that make sense? I am bad at front-end :(
