Description

In admin side media section when you switch the grid view to list view then you will found the same issue as ticket #47149
These are coded as links with redundant href attributes ("#"),
which is not semantically valid, and does not convey the
currently-active link to assistive technologies.

@mayanksonawat thanks for your report. I'm not sure I fully understand. What are the links with a href="#" in this page?

@afercia thanks for your prompt reply. I're saying about tabbing for media, please ignore for href="#", Reloading of page for Tabing may not be a good practise.

  • Keywords needs-patch has-screenshots added; reporter-feedback removed

Thanks @mayanksonawat. Thinking the list and grid mode links should have an aria-current attribute. As you pointed out, there's no semantic indication of the currently active link.

  • Milestone changed from Awaiting Review to 5.3.1

48271.diff​ adds aria-current="page" to the "switch view" links in the list tables. It's a small, self-contained, improvements that continues the introduction in core of aria-current. As such, I'd like to propose this for 5.3.1 consideration.
