Hi all, > via aria-label or title attribute > <p><input type=“checkbox” aria-label="Please send me a ton of email"> Please send me a ton of email</p> > > AND: > > <p><input type=“checkbox” title="Please send me a ton of email"> Please send me a ton of email</p> Have the working group reached the consensus that using aria-label or title attribute passes SC 1.3.1? As I commented on the github, the visible label text itself is not programmatically determined even if those attributes provide the accessible name. SC 1.3.1 reads "Information, structure, and relationships conveyed through presentation". In this case, the requirement of the SC would be to make the visible label text programmatically determinable as the label for the checkbox. https://github.com/w3c/wcag/issues/122#issuecomment-158240030 - Makoto
