I've moved your request here as it's a more relevant forum.

I'm afraid I can't answer this one myself, but I've put out a request for you on our Twitter account.

Hope you find the information you're looking for!

Cheers! Smile

1.) Is it a JavaScript error?
2.) Is it a field level or page level error message?
3.) What markup do you use? Any online example will help
Reply with quote Good idea from mpnkhan!

Anything more you can tell us? A link or some code would be great.

Cheers! Smile
Reply with quote Just provide me with an example and I will do my best to help you. And also, what do you mean by can't read your error message? It depends where you putting your error message.

If you're talking errors on a form submission you'll want to concentrate on signposting and explanation around your errors.

Depending on how the errors occur you might want to look into ARIA role alert.
