I don't think anyone is suggesting that a user interface should refer to a phone number field as "type: text" or whatever. Of course that would be confusing.

- chefandy 5y agoIt's common enough: https://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20-TECHS/C17.html#C17-description https://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20-TECHS/C17.html#C17-description
- tshaddox 5y agoI’m not sure what you mean. That page isn’t suggesting that you display to the user that the phone number is of type text.
- chefandy 5y agoThis entire thread is about the type= property of an HTML input field. Nowhere did I or anybody suggest that this be presented on the webpage. The users in question are users of HTML markup, not users of the webpages written in that HTML.
