How to add aria-label for input type (dropdown)
After doing testing using Site improve(accessibility checker ) I am facing this issue and also Splunk is not allowing aria-label in the label field also we are using" Splunk cloud" instance
Below suggestion I get from site improve :
" Text areas should always have a description that is explicitly associated with the area to make sure that users of assistive technologies will also know what the area is for.
If the text area has a visible description indicating the purpose of the area, this description should be explicitly associated to the text area either as a HTML label or using the WAI-ARIA attribute aria-labelled by.
If it is not possible to add a visible description, either add a mouseover text ('title' attribute) to the text area or create an invisible label using the WAI-ARIA attribute 'aria-label'. "
below way i have tried, but i get warning -Unknown attribute "for" for node "label"
<input type="dropdown" token="id" id="search">
<label for="search">Search with ID</label>
and also this way ,warning -Unknown attribute "aria-label" for node "input"
<input type="dropdown" token="id" aria-label="search">
I get warnings for both.
Can anyone suggest a fix for this issue ?

@knanaiah001There aren't a lot of options to do that in simplexml, which is doing the coding for you. You'll want to go to HTML if this is very important to you. https://dev.splunk.com/enterprise/docs/developapps/visualizedata/convertsimplexml/
I have the following, I used for an image I have in a dashboard with simple xml, using a span tag:
<panel>
<title>Test Panel - Image</title>
<html>
<div class="foo"/>
<span role="img" aria-label="foo"/>
<!-- this span is as close as we can get to alt text for accessibility -->
</html>
</panel>I can't cite my source, because I don't remember.
HTH! Good Luck!

@knanaiah001 Not that I'm aware of. If it's critical, convert it. Or maybe get professional services involved.
