<select> with disabled

← Return to main list

This is a test case designed to determine how the disabled attribute, applied to the <select> element, is announced by various screen readers.

Disabled attributes cannot receive focus, so the only way to test how these attributes are announced is via:

• VoiceOver: Announce next item: VO + Right Arrow
• NVDA and JAWS: Announce next line: DOWN ARROW

Example

Code

<div>
  <label for="suburb">Suburb</label>
  <select id="suburb" disabled>
    <option value="Abbotsbury">Abbotsbury</option>
  </select>
</div>
