    Using aria-labelledby and aria-describedby

    Was this ever addressed? I ask because it is coming up in our accessibility checker as an error in tablepress. Thanks!

    The ARIA errors on this page appear legitimate. The tables have aria-describedby=”tablepress-30-description” attributes, but there are no elements in the page with id=”tablepress-30-description”. This creates a broken relationship and a description that is not present for the tables, thus the WAVE errors.

    Hi,

    thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.

    That sounds strange. That aria-describedby is only added to the page if the table description is also printed — which is the element with that HTML ID.

    Can you please post a link to the page with the table where this problem happens, so that I can take a direct look? Thanks!

    Regards,
    Tobias
