Wenn Ihr folgendes Layout hättet: eine Suchformular als Satz – wie würdet Ihr das Markup hierfür schreiben? Also mit korrekten Labels und sinnvoller Semantik. Bin gerade ein bisschen aufgeschmissen … (Bitte keine Vorschläge für andere Formularlayouts, es geht um diesen konkreten Fall. Danke!) #html #forms #accessibility

Governmental XFA #PDF forms come from some special type of hell.

Surprisingly, some of them do work in #GNOME Papers / #Evince / #Okular. It seems like a few corner cases remain where only some forms refuse to load, so I filed a ticket in #Poppler with a neat reference table and sample files today. In case this is useful to anyone: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/poppler/poppler/-/issues/1481

Hey everyone!

I'm working on a video to see what the Linux community (or at least people who follow me) actually use.

So, I created a little form, hosted on my Nextcloud (hopefully it's up to the task...)

It's only up for 2 days, so don't hesitate to share it around, it will help me "touch grass" and see if my preconceived notions are confirmed, or invalidated!

https://nextcloud.thelinuxexp.com/index.php/apps/forms/s/XQRzMrs8QTtCjDfSyP4koA9o

Of course, it's all anonymous, no personal data, it's just for the purposes of creating the video.

@yatil Howdy. Quick web accessibility question for you. I'm asked to “rule" on accessibility of a lot of pages containing forms. I use the online tools, I do my best, but I'm wondering if you know of good tutorials for non-#a11y pros about making sure that web forms with boxes, menus, buttons and the like are behaving themselves.

Thanks for telling me shapes exist! (sopuli.xyz)

Alt text: a post on LinkedIn that says “yes 2d forms exist. They are called shapes”. Then it proceeds to explain what shapes are.

Pondering forays today into pantoums and/or sestinas; I hope to be able in the next few days to test out a vague sense that certain poetic #forms might get at certain #feelings or situations in ways others might not. (Hardly a revelation, but it's a new point in my being unable to abandon attempts at #writing #Poetry.)

I found it!
I found the worst button in the world

They put the log in form inside the sign in button 🤯 And all the other things...

There's a PHD in analysing the usability problems going on here.

#ux #uxDesign #forms #accessibility #usability #productDesign

It's dark blue button that says 'sign in' hovering the mouse over the button splits the label into a log in form inside the left of the button, with a link to 'Register' also inside the button on the right. The form fields inside the button are barely visible and the text when you type is dark grey on dark blue and even less visible.
