Description Max Li CLA 2012-01-17 11:32:47 EST
Build Identifier: 

The help link in the main navigation header (i.e. the ? link) does not have a label. When using a screen reader like JAWS, tabbing to the link will have it only read the word "link", with no indication of what the link is (essentially rendering it useless).

Reproducible: Always
Comment 1 Carolyn MacLeod CLA 2012-01-17 15:17:46 EST
This should probably be an image of a question mark with alt text "Help".
(I have heard that there is a rule of thumb not to have link text less than 3 characters, although I can't find a reference to that guideline at the moment).
Comment 2 Max Li CLA 2012-01-26 15:31:18 EST
This was fixed at some point in the header/layout rehaul.
