Warning banners are not compliant with Section 508 accessibility guidelines

Alex Mclean October 17, 2023

The text on the orange warning banners don't meet Section 508 compliance.

Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act is a set of user interface rules to accommodate individuals with disabilities, and government offices are in the process of meeting this standard, so I have a feeling I'm not the only one affected by this.

The text color is being read by my tools as #F2BDA0 and the background is #DF5B12.
This does not meet a contract ratio of 4.5:1 as required by the 508 rules, and I don't think it's configurable by the end user. So most likely the text just needs to be lighter or with less transparency.

This isn't a really big deal so I'm not putting this in the same place as defects and problems, but it's something to consider changing to accommodate people with disabilities.
