Diagnoses

Here is how rule engines diagnose the text contrast improvable issue for HTML element 2169 of the Rainforest Alliance page.

1. The highest possible contrast of the text is 5.91:1 which is below the required contrast of 7:1

   Rule engine: Alfa (Siteimprove)

   Rule: r66

2. Expected color contrast ratio for small font size at least 7:1, but got ratio: 5.91:1, <code>background-color: #e8eeee</code>, <code>foreground-color: #1a52c2</code>, <code>font-size: 15pt</code> (original: <code>20px</code>), <code>font-weight: 600</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.

   Rule engine: ASLint (eSSENTIAL Accessibility)

   Rule: color_contrast_aaa7
