Diagnoses
Here is how rule engines diagnose the heading level skipped
issue for HTML element 657 of the YMCA of Greater San Antonio page.
- Heading levels should only increase by one; Heading order invalid
Tool: Axe (Deque)
Rule:
heading-order - <p>Headings and subheadings create a <a href="https://www.w3.org/WAI/tutorials/page-structure/headings/" target="_blank" title="Opens in new tab">navigable table of contents</a> for assistive devices. The numbers indicate indents in a nesting relationship:</p> <ul> <li>Heading level 1 <ul> <li>Heading level 2: a topic <ul><li>Heading level 3: a subtopic</li></ul></li> <li>Heading level 2: a new topic</li> </ul> </li> </ul> <p>This heading skipped from level 1 to level 3. From a screen reader, this sounds like content is missing.</p> <p><strong>To fix:</strong> adjust levels to form an accurate outline, without gaps.</p>
Tool: Editoria11y (Princeton University)
Rule:
headingLevelSkipped - The heading h3 (with computed level 3) follows the heading h1 (with computed level 1), skipping 1 heading level.
