[jira] [Commented] (WICKET-4472) Modal window accessibility - add role and aria attributes to outer div for assitive technologies

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WICKET-4472?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13238421#comment-13238421 ] 

Martin Grigorov commented on WICKET-4472:
-----------------------------------------

Thanks for the ticket!
Either attach the changes as patches or at least paste how it looks now and how it should become. This will make it easier for us to dig the specific code and modify it. Otherwise we can make a mistake and modify the wrong div ...

> For more accessible modal windows it is desirable that the outer DIV element has a 'dialog' role defined and an 'aria-labelledBy' attribute pointing to the modal title text. This will help assistive technologies in properly alerting people with disabilities (PwD) users about the modal windows that wicket displays.
