The aria roles for an element are different in the DOM and Accessibility inspectors.
See the role in the Accessibility inspector, it says “section”:
See the role in the DOM inspector, it says “search”:
Why are the roles different?
Hi, I realize that this is unexpected but search is one of those roles (landmark roles) that are exposed in Firefox via “xml-roles” attribute rather than a role property (you can see that in the inspector too, if you expand the attributes property you’ll see that xml-roles is set to search).
Screen readers should be able to handle this case and as far as I can tell you are doing it right, if you landmark roles show up as xml-roles attribute in Firefox.
I see it under xml-roles. Thanks for responding!
