Non-Accessible Content
We continuously monitor and improve the accessibility of the Visit Maribor website. However, due to a disproportionate burden, some content does not fully comply with the accessibility requirements defined by the Accessibility of Websites and Mobile Applications Act.
Examples of such content include:
- scanned documents in PDF format,
- content without a visible keyboard focus indicator,
- some video content without available subtitles and with non-optimized playback controls, as they depend on external services (e.g. YouTube),
- content imported from social media platforms (Facebook and Instagram), where accessibility issues may occur (use of English terms, missing text alternatives, etc.),
- links with the same destination but different descriptive text,
- opening a new tab or window without prior user notification,
- elements without semantic markup,
- empty alt attribute values for images,
- elements with insufficient color contrast,
- skipped heading levels,
- <fieldset> elements missing a <legend> element as the first child,
- missing skip links for navigation or other repetitive content,
- pages without the lang attribute,
- forms without <label> elements,
- identical img alt values used for different images,
- missing visible focus indicators,
- groups of lists without list items,
- links and interactive elements without descriptive text,
