Tips for known issues

Landmark regions

• • Screen readers - Some pages have unnecessary landmark regions. You may find landmarks for Section navigation on pages where it does not apply. Form regions may be misplaced. The main landmark may be a form landmark.

Messages (if you have an account)

• • Keyboard and screen readers - The shortcut for accessibility help (Alt+0) does not work. Use Alt+F10 to access the rich text toolbar.
