Buttons without a readable name
What it means and why it matters
A button that only shows an icon (search, close, menu) is announced as "button" — its function stays unknown (WCAG 4.1.2).
How to fix it
Give the button text or an aria-label such as aria-label="Close".
Code example
Before
<button class="close"><span class="icon-x"></span></button>After
<button class="close" aria-label="Close"><span class="icon-x" aria-hidden="true"></span></button>Find this error on your website
