# dom-accessibility-api changelog
## 0.5.7
### Patch Changes
- [#718](https://github.com/eps1lon/dom-accessibility-api/pull/718) [`6154760`](https://github.com/eps1lon/dom-accessibility-api/commit/61547602a7676167a65a893be53c3cf6b4e010b5) Thanks [@calebeby](https://github.com/calebeby)! - Remove implicit "document" role on `
` and add it to ``
## 0.5.6
### Patch Changes
- [#666](https://github.com/eps1lon/dom-accessibility-api/pull/666) [`26ee73d`](https://github.com/eps1lon/dom-accessibility-api/commit/26ee73de9ad6fce27cde0d5ec53a2bc4a12bd879) Thanks [@eps1lon](https://github.com/eps1lon)! - Consider ` ` when computing the accessible name of ` `
Given
```html
Output Label
```
Previously the accessible name of the ` ` would ignore the ` `.
However, an [` ` is labelable](https://html.spec.whatwg.org/#the-output-element) and therefore the accessible name is now computed using ` ` elements if they exists.
In this example the accessible name is `"Output Label"`.
## 0.5.5
### Patch Changes
- [#627](https://github.com/eps1lon/dom-accessibility-api/pull/627) [`0485441`](https://github.com/eps1lon/dom-accessibility-api/commit/0485441e68cf728596d7140bdff2ac13280eefab) Thanks [@eps1lon](https://github.com/eps1lon)! - Ensure certain babel helpers aren't required
Source:
```diff
-const [item] = list;
+const item = list[0];
```
Transpiled:
```diff
-var _trim$split = list.trim().split(" "),
-_trim$split2 = _slicedToArray(_trim$split, 1),
-item = _trim$split2[0]
+var item = list[0];
```
* [#629](https://github.com/eps1lon/dom-accessibility-api/pull/629) [`383bdb6`](https://github.com/eps1lon/dom-accessibility-api/commit/383bdb616c00105474c8607dd9e5aab4deaff7ed) Thanks [@eps1lon](https://github.com/eps1lon)! - Use label attribute for naming of `` elements.
Given
```jsx
bar
```
Previously the ` ` would not have an accessible name.
Though [2D in `accname` 1.2](https://www.w3.org/TR/accname-1.2/) could be interpreted to use the `label` attribute:
> Otherwise, if the current node's native markup provides an attribute (e.g. title) or element (e.g. HTML label) that defines a text alternative, return that alternative [...]
This was confirmed in NVDA + FireFox.
## 0.5.4
### Patch Changes
- [`3866289`](https://github.com/eps1lon/dom-accessibility-api/commit/3866289a6ad92b73a8c031a2983165e1b1f2b24c) [#442](https://github.com/eps1lon/dom-accessibility-api/pull/442) Thanks [@geoffrich](https://github.com/geoffrich)! - Correctly determine accessible name when element contains a slot.
Previously, computing the accessible name would only examine child nodes. However, content placed in a slot is is an assigned node, not a child node.
If you have a custom element `custom-button` with a slot:
```html
Custom name
```
If you have a custom element `custom-button-default` with default content in the slot:
```html
Default name
Custom name
```
This is not currently defined in the accname spec but reflects current browser behavior.
## 0.5.3
### Patch Changes
- [`76e8f93`](https://github.com/eps1lon/dom-accessibility-api/commit/76e8f93ccd8d6d3464d1b362a22163c501b9ea37) [#430](https://github.com/eps1lon/dom-accessibility-api/pull/430) Thanks [@ckundo](https://github.com/ckundo)! - Maintain `img` role for `img` with missing `alt` attribute.
Previously ` ` would be treated the same as ` `.
` ` is now treated as `role="img"` [as specified](https://w3c.github.io/html-aam/#el-img-empty-alt).
* [`96d4438`](https://github.com/eps1lon/dom-accessibility-api/commit/96d443855b897fccb9fa09d5f595c502b23e6cf9) [#436](https://github.com/eps1lon/dom-accessibility-api/pull/436) Thanks [@eps1lon](https://github.com/eps1lon)! - Resolve presentational role conflicts when global WAI-ARIA states or properties (ARIA attributes) are used.
` ` used to have no role.
[By spec](https://w3c.github.io/html-aam/#el-img-empty-alt) it should have `role="presentation"` with no ARIA attributes or `role="img"` [otherwise](https://rawgit.com/w3c/aria/stable/#conflict_resolution_presentation_none).
## 0.5.2
### Patch Changes
- [`03273b7`](https://github.com/eps1lon/dom-accessibility-api/commit/03273b7d91a156a6dd9c727293a491cd2d1f02f1) [#406](https://github.com/eps1lon/dom-accessibility-api/pull/406) Thanks [@eps1lon](https://github.com/eps1lon)! - Fix various issues for input types `submit`, `reset` and `image`
Prefer input `value` when `type` is `reset` or `submit`:
```diff
-// accessible name: "Submit"
+// accessible name: "Submit values"
-// accessible name: "Reset"
+// accessible name: "Reset form"
```
For input `type` `image` consider `alt` attribute or fall back to `"Submit query"`.
## 0.5.1
### Patch Changes
- [`fcc66ae`](https://github.com/eps1lon/dom-accessibility-api/commit/fcc66aef833b8c7546921800e09cbb2096ef9601) [#394](https://github.com/eps1lon/dom-accessibility-api/pull/394) Thanks [@marcosvega91](https://github.com/marcosvega91)! - Ignore `title` attribute if it is empty.
Previously `Hello, Dave! ` would wrongly compute an empty name.
## 0.5.0
### Minor Changes
- [`9e46c51`](https://github.com/eps1lon/dom-accessibility-api/commit/9e46c51b51993c65237efd4b0d046f1a35c3e76a) [#380](https://github.com/eps1lon/dom-accessibility-api/pull/380) Thanks [@eps1lon](https://github.com/eps1lon)! - **BREAKING CHANGE**
Ignore `::before` and `::after` by default.
This was necessary to prevent excessive warnings in `jsdom@^16.4.0`.
If you use this package in a browser that supports the second argument of `window.getComputedStyle` you can set the `computedStyleSupportsPseudoElements` option to true:
```ts
computeAccessibleName(element, {
computedStyleSupportsPseudoElements: true
});
computeAccessibleDescription(element, {
computedStyleSupportsPseudoElements: true
});
```
If you pass a custom implementation of `getComputedStyle` then this option defaults to `true`.
The following two calls are equivalent:
```ts
computeAccessibleName(element, {
computedStyleSupportsPseudoElements: true
});
computeAccessibleName(element, {
getComputedStyle: (element, pseudoElement) => {
// custom implementation
}
});
```

## 0.4.7
### Patch Changes
- [`d6c4455`](https://github.com/eps1lon/dom-accessibility-api/commit/d6c44558250e898caa68e7b3eaa2f4d505078b3e) [#352](https://github.com/eps1lon/dom-accessibility-api/pull/352) Thanks [@eps1lon](https://github.com/eps1lon)! - Support native labels in IE 11
Also affects Edge < 18 and Firefox < 56.
## 0.4.6
### Patch Changes
- [`85f0032`](https://github.com/eps1lon/dom-accessibility-api/commit/85f0032e0ec9203df7e4e5d0c3c8a206ac1968c1) [#324](https://github.com/eps1lon/dom-accessibility-api/pull/324) Thanks [@juanca](https://github.com/juanca)! - Consider `` for the name of its `` element.
* [`f7c1981`](https://github.com/eps1lon/dom-accessibility-api/commit/f7c19812307e8847dbe1b678a3bafdc6dbf7f23b) [#288](https://github.com/eps1lon/dom-accessibility-api/pull/288) Thanks [@eps1lon](https://github.com/eps1lon)! - Drop node 13 support
We only stopped testing. Probability of breakage should be very low.
**New policy**:
> Only [active node versions](https://nodejs.org/en/about/releases/) are supported.
> Inactive node versions can stop working in a SemVer MINOR release.
- [`fa53c51`](https://github.com/eps1lon/dom-accessibility-api/commit/fa53c510d8aab6cf3561c91949f1df3a52a500a8) [#210](https://github.com/eps1lon/dom-accessibility-api/pull/210) Thanks [@eps1lon](https://github.com/eps1lon)! - Implement accessbile description computation
```ts
import { computeAccessibleDescription } from "dom-accessibility-api";
const description = computeAccessibleDescription(element);
```
Warning: It always considers `title` attributes if the description is empty.
Even if the `title` attribute was already used for the accessible name.
This is fails a web-platform-test.
The other failing test is due to `aria-label` being ignored for the description which is correct by spec.
It's likely an issue with wpt.
The other tests are passing (13/15).
## 0.4.5
### Patch Changes
- [`d668f72`](https://github.com/eps1lon/dom-accessibility-api/commit/d668f724aeb42cb71d720e0acd3518a03bbbee6e) [#273](https://github.com/eps1lon/dom-accessibility-api/pull/273) Thanks [@eps1lon](https://github.com/eps1lon)! - fix: Concatenate text nodes without space
Fixes `Hello {name}! ` in `react` computing `"Hello name !"` instead of `Hello name!`.
## 0.4.4
### Patch Changes
- [`e79f620`](https://github.com/eps1lon/dom-accessibility-api/commit/e79f6209667b3b2de656a73dec0eea37c65d48a9) [#208](https://github.com/eps1lon/dom-accessibility-api/pull/208) Thanks [@eps1lon](https://github.com/eps1lon)! - Add support for node 14
* [`2c6a23b`](https://github.com/eps1lon/dom-accessibility-api/commit/2c6a23b3ec3e514d7db631e393749fac0ab33b5b) [#200](https://github.com/eps1lon/dom-accessibility-api/pull/200) Thanks [@eps1lon](https://github.com/eps1lon)! - Add `module` field
- [`737dfae`](https://github.com/eps1lon/dom-accessibility-api/commit/737dfae2b88a4ce94d59144a6aabf69f0a671edc) [#234](https://github.com/eps1lon/dom-accessibility-api/pull/234) Thanks [@willamzv](https://github.com/willamzv)! - Consider `` for the name of its ` ` element.
```html
my fieldset
```
Computing the name for this fieldset would've returned an empty string previously. It now correctly computes `my fieldset` following the [accessible name computation for `fieldset` elements](https://w3c.github.io/html-aam/#fieldset-and-legend-elements)
* [`969da7d`](https://github.com/eps1lon/dom-accessibility-api/commit/969da7d454b3d83dc7259d910f40e7e16a6eb560) [#240](https://github.com/eps1lon/dom-accessibility-api/pull/240) Thanks [@eps1lon](https://github.com/eps1lon)! - Reduce over-transpilation
Switched from
- `for-of` to `.forEach` or a basic `for` loop
- `array.push(...otherArray)` to `push.apply(array, otherArray)`
This removed a bunch of babel junk that wasn't needed.
- [`d578329`](https://github.com/eps1lon/dom-accessibility-api/commit/d5783292ca49ae947bd95559030aa2c93c04565f) [#248](https://github.com/eps1lon/dom-accessibility-api/pull/248) Thanks [@eps1lon](https://github.com/eps1lon)! - Consider `` for the name of its `` element.
```html
```
Computing the name for this table would've returned an empty string previously. It now correctly computes `my table` following the [accessible name computation for `table` elements](https://w3c.github.io/html-aam/#table-element)
* [`f1b2bd0`](https://github.com/eps1lon/dom-accessibility-api/commit/f1b2bd0434cafe65812acfb0e3a2942309eb9726) [#237](https://github.com/eps1lon/dom-accessibility-api/pull/237) Thanks [@eps1lon](https://github.com/eps1lon)! - Use nodeType and tagName for element type checks
