Hi I’m using tab sections across my site and I need to ensure they meet accessibility guidelines. They mostly conform, however, I am getting this alert on the tabs themselves.
Local link destination does not exist
1.3.1 Info and Relationships
A local link (anchor link) occurs but the destination does not exist.When using local links they must refer to an existing element on the page.
Occurrences on this page4
See this page as an example: https://owe.brother.design/vision-alternative/scale/#uk – password below in private content
Also, see the image example: https://owe.brother.design/images/image-2.png
Any ideas on how to fix this? I was hoping not to have to add anchor points anywhere that may scroll the page up and down.
Thanks in advance
Dominic
Hey domchocolate,
Thanks for the link to your page, unfortunately I don’t see a way to change this without braking the element, the Dev Team added aria-controls to the tab section links to correctly identify them to the correct element, is your testing tool also checking aria functions.
Best regards,
Mike
