hi, I'm doing a review regarding the Italian public administration. They are using text area boxes with a placeholder text that remains fixed and should be deleted if necessary, but if you want there are parts marked with (....) where the user must enter basic information, such as name, date of birth, all within a text box, in my opinion this behavior is not accessible because the placeholder must be deleted in whole or in part in case you want to use only one piece, and therefore for those with motor problems it is not easy and for those use the screen reader, the parts to fill in the placeholder text do not go into focus and this is really problematic. The answer to these observations says that the wcag does not give indications for the text area and therefore they can do as they wish, I wanted your opinion. -- Francesco Mammetti, Experience Design M +39 3519954554 E francesco.mammetti@dos.design <francesco.mammetti@dos-design.it> Dos Media Srl | Piazza Carlo Magno, 21 | 00162 Rome | Italy T +39 06 45 44 90 89 F +39 06 45 44 98 38 W dos-design.it <http://www.dos-design.it/>
