Description

Tapestry can make its forms more accessible by adding these WAI-ARIA attributes:

• aria-required when the field has the Required validation.
• aria-invalid when the field has been validated in the client side.
• aria-labelledby when a form field component has a matching Label component, which should have id attribute generated if not provided explicitly.
• aria-describedby when an error message is being shown for a form field.
• role="alert" for error messages, including Errors and Error components.
