Diagnoses

Here is how rule engines diagnose the text contrast improvable issue for HTML element 132 of the Pacific Northwest Software Quality Conference page.

1. Element was excluded from scanning because it's not visible either due to being explicitly hidden or e.g. is being rendered outside of viewport, having transparency etc.

   Rule engine: ASLint (eSSENTIAL Accessibility)

   Rule: color_contrast_aaa7

2. Element was excluded from scanning because it's not visible either due to being explicitly hidden or e.g. is being rendered outside of viewport, having transparency etc.

   Rule engine: ASLint (eSSENTIAL Accessibility)

   Rule: color_contrast_aaa7

3. Element was excluded from scanning because it's not visible either due to being explicitly hidden or e.g. is being rendered outside of viewport, having transparency etc.

   Rule engine: ASLint (eSSENTIAL Accessibility)

   Rule: color_contrast_aaa7

4. Expected color contrast ratio for small font size at least 7:1, but got ratio: 2.75:1, <code>background-color: #c88b3a</code>, <code>foreground-color: #fbf8f3</code>, <code>font-size: 11pt</code> (original: <code>14px</code>), <code>font-weight: 500</code>. <small>Note:</small> The element is possibly visually hidden and that state might be temporary. For example the lazy loading technique can be used and the element will be visible at some point.
