Solution retrospective


I decided not to use JavaScript in this challenge. So I need to use the checked state in CSS. Yes, the checkbox allows for that, but to create an accordion element, there is only one element open, the others will be closed automatically.

So I used some radio buttons to do it. But the drawback is that the radio button cannot be unchecked so the accordion cannot be closed completely. Need some tricks to overcome it.

What do you think?

    Hi Nurcholis, the automated feedback shows that the html structure is not correct. Some of the issues raised may include the following

    • heading elements and divs cannot be children of a label element. The label element as well cannot be a child of another label element. Try changing the offending labels into divs
    • decorative images can have an empty alt value, other than that, your alt values should be descriptive for the benefit of assistive technology users
    • Preferably use rems instead of fixed values like px especially with your fonts, read the following article for a proper explanation why you should use rems instead of px
    • take a look at the details-summary element for other options on the accordion.
    • using the radio buttons is a good idea as well you only need to sought out the html structure

    Happy coding

How does the accessibility report work?

When a solution is submitted, we use axe-core to run an automated audit of your code.

This picks out common accessibility issues like not using semantic HTML and not having proper heading hierarchies, among others.

This automated audit is fairly surface level, so we encourage to you review the project and code in more detail with accessibility best practices in mind.

How does the CSS report work?

When a solution is submitted, we use stylelint to run an automated check on the CSS code.

We've added some of our own linting rules based on recommended best practices. These rules are prefixed with frontend-mentor/ which you'll see at the top of each issue in the report.

The report will audit all CSS, SCSS and Less files in your repository.

How does the HTML validation report work?

When a solution is submitted, we use html-validate to run an automated check on the HTML code.

The report picks out common HTML issues such as not using headings within section elements and incorrect nesting of elements, among others.

Note that the report can pick up “invalid” attributes, which some frameworks automatically add to the HTML. These attributes are crucial for how the frameworks function, although they’re technically not valid HTML. As such, some projects can show up with many HTML validation errors, which are benign and are a necessary part of the framework.

How does the JavaScript validation report work?

When a solution is submitted, we use eslint to run an automated check on the JavaScript code.

The report picks out common JavaScript issues such as not using semicolons and using var instead of let or const, among others.

The report will audit all JS and JSX files in your repository. We currently do not support Typescript or other frontend frameworks.
