    Hello!

    Does this plug-in support accissibility principals according to WCAG 2.0?

    When i test it with WAVE it shows errors for “Missing alternative text” & “Linked image missing alternative text”.

    Thank you1

    please see this screenshot for the problematic image.

    thank you

    Hi there

    Could you please link us to the page in question?

    We’re not seeing that element at all at our end with OpenLayers selected.

    Kind regards

    this is the website http://asetsika.000webhostapp.com/

    if you check it with WAVE it will show an error for missing alt tag.
    Remove the styles (from the button) and at the end of the page you will see it

    Hey guys!

    I have an update for you.
    This error doesn’t always show up.
    Sometimes exists and sometimes not.
    Really i don’t know what to do.

    The problem is that in a few days we expect a commissioner to view the website.
    So we need to fix it.

    Thank you

    Hi Angie

    Unfortunately that isn’t showing up at all at my end – we wouldn’t be able to advise you on how to remove that unless we can see it.

    You may have to take this issue up with OpenLayers – we don’t add that image at all, it’s purely controlled by the OpenLayers library, we can reach out to them you your behalf if that would help?

    Kind regards

    Yes that would help a lot!
    Can i also reach them just to be sure?
    Do they have a support link?
    And also, do you know if they reply quickly?

    Hi there

    They’re not a commercial outfit like Google, it’s a community driven project.

    You can start out here https://github.com/openlayers/openlayers if you’d like to raise this issue with the community,

    A possible alternative if it’s absolutely crucial that you get around this would be to switch to the Google engine which shouldn’t suffer these issues.

    I hope that helps?

    Kind regards

    But then i have to purchase an api.

    We will check it!

    Hi Angie

    Indeed you would have to, they give you $200.00 / month free credit which should be more than enough for most use cases.

    I hope that helps!

    Kind regards

    Ok we will investigate it!

    If it’s not a trouble, could you let us know when there is a change with this issue?

    Thank you!

    Hi Angie

    Yes, absolutely, I’ll raise an issue on their repo and keep in touch 🙂

    Is there anything else I can help you with?

    Kind regards
