Accessibility report for jonathanadler.com

Accessibility grade: C
Based on an automated WCAG 2.1 Level AA scan on June 13, 2026.

Web accessibility is a legal requirement, not an optional extra. An automated scan of jonathanadler.com found 11 types of barrier, measured against WCAG 2.1 Level AA — the standard U.S. courts apply under the ADA.

On this page, the most frequent barrier is "An accessibility rule failed on this page" — found on 20 elements. In total the scan flagged 41 issues across 11 categories of WCAG 2.1 Level AA.

WCAG 2.1 Level AA is the standard U.S. courts apply under the ADA, and the law across the EU under the European Accessibility Act. These barriers block screen-reader, keyboard-only, and low-vision users — and every one of them is fixable. Here's how.

What we found, and how to fix it

An accessibility rule failed on this page.

WCAG 1.3.1 (Level A) EN 301 549 Affects screen-reader users

Why it matters: Some users — particularly those using screen readers, keyboard-only navigation, or who have low vision or motor disabilities — may have trouble using this part of the page.

How to fix it: Share the technical rule ID with your developer. They can look up the full fix at https://dequeuniversity.com/rules/axe.

A dropdown menu has no description.

WCAG 4.1.2 (Level A) Section 508EN 301 549 Affects screen-reader and cognitive-disability users

Why it matters: Screen-reader users hear 'combo box, has popup' but not what the dropdown is for. They can't fill out forms reliably.

How to fix it: In your form editor, check that each dropdown has a visible label above or beside it. If your platform has separate label/field settings, both must be filled.

A button's visible text doesn't match the description it announces to screen readers.

label-content-name-mismatch · serious · 1 instance

WCAG 2.5.3 (Level A) EN 301 549 Affects screen-reader users

Why it matters: A user dictating 'click Submit' to voice-control software may see 'Submit' on screen but the announce-name is something else, so the voice command fails.

How to fix it: Developer fix: 'aria-label should start with or fully contain the visible button text'.

Some links have no readable text — usually icon-only links.

link-name · serious · 2 instances

WCAG 4.1.2 (Level A) Section 508EN 301 549 Affects screen-reader users

Why it matters: Screen-reader users hear 'link' but not where the link goes. Users navigate by listening to a list of links — useless if every entry is just 'link, link, link'.

How to fix it: In your site editor, for icon-only links (social-media icons, navigation arrows), set an 'Aria label' or 'Title' field describing where it goes ('Follow us on Twitter', 'Next page').

Some buttons or links are too small to tap reliably on touch screens.

target-size · serious · 2 instances

WCAG 2.5.8 (Level AA) Affects low-vision and colorblind users

Why it matters: WCAG 2.2 requires touch targets to be at least 24×24 pixels. Small targets are a problem for users with hand tremors, large fingers, or motor disabilities. They're also frustrating for everyone.

How to fix it: In your editor, increase padding around small icon buttons. If your developer is involved, ask them to ensure all interactive elements have minimum 24×24 CSS pixels of clickable area.

Heading levels skip — for example, an H2 jumps directly to an H4 with no H3 between them.

heading-order · moderate · 1 instance

Affects screen-reader users

Why it matters: Screen-reader users navigate by heading levels. Skipped levels suggest missing content and break the page's outline. Confusing for everyone.

How to fix it: In your editor, find the headings that skip levels and either bump them up to the right level (H4 → H3 if no H2 exists between) or insert the missing level. Headings should follow a logical outline like a document outline.

The page tells mobile browsers users can't zoom in.

WCAG 1.4.4 (Level AA) EN 301 549 Affects low-vision and colorblind users

Why it matters: People with low vision rely on pinch-zoom to read small text. Disabling zoom is a real WCAG failure and a common lawsuit target.

How to fix it: In platform site settings, look for a 'Mobile zoom' or 'Pinch zoom' option and enable it. If your developer added user-scalable=no in a viewport meta tag, ask them to remove it.

Some content on the page isn't inside a recognized region (header, nav, main, footer, aside).

region · moderate · 6 instances

Affects keyboard-only users

Why it matters: Screen-reader users navigate by these regions. Content outside any region can be missed when skimming.

How to fix it: Developer fix: 'wrap orphaned page content in semantic landmark elements (<main>, <aside>, <nav>) so it's reachable via landmark nav'.

Affects screen-reader users

Why it matters: Some users — particularly those using screen readers, keyboard-only navigation, or who have low vision or motor disabilities — may have trouble using this part of the page.

A heading on this page has no text.

empty-heading · minor · 1 instance

Affects screen-reader users

Why it matters: Screen-reader users navigate pages by jumping between headings. An empty heading is dead air — they don't know what the section is about.

How to fix it: Find the empty heading in your editor (often a section title that was deleted but the heading element remained) and either delete it or add real heading text.

This is an automated scan and catches a portion of accessibility barriers; full WCAG 2.1 Level AA conformance also requires manual and assistive-technology testing. See our methodology for what we do and don't claim.
