Hi all,

Apologies for my ignorance if this is something I should already know:

When auditing websites we are frequently experiencing accessibility issues that seem to relate to certain browsers/browser versions/operating systems. Examples include contrast issues and text spacing issues in standard combo boxes when presented in Chrome and contrast issues with the standard focus indicator in Edge.

Although technical fixes can likely be implemented to address these issues, a better solution would be if browsers offered out-of-the-box compliance when rendering standard components.

I would be interested in your opinion on this topic.

Venligst/Kind regards

Lars
