Okay, trying to figure out what’s going on here for accessibility – I’m trying to add alt text to the up and down arrows in the EPrint workflow on multi-part field, like creators or related URIs.

 

I’ve tracked the code to https://github.com/eprints/eprints/blob/c17712b94b9d932aabeded46994701ada8b18ccd/perl_lib/EPrints/MetaField.pm#L1389-L1397 but I’m losing where

make_element( “input”, type=>”image”…

 

turns into the page html

<a type="image" src="" alt="down" title="move down" name="_internal_c30_creators_down_3" class="epjs_ajax" value="1" href="">

<img src="">

</a>

 

As the parameters passed in are all being applied to the anchor rather than the contained image.

 

Thanks,

Alan
