The <ice:selectOneRadio> component is rendered as a <fieldset> tag. According to 508 compliance a <fieldset> tag needs to have a <legend> tag which is used by screen readers.

Customer request/suggestions:

It would be great if the selectOneRadio had a "legend" attribute we could set and get passed through as a <legend> tag inside the fieldset (or the label attribute could be used for this as it appears to currently do nothing). It should be noted we have applications using 1.8.2 and 2.0.0 and the issue exists in both.

Sample ICEFaces code:

<ice:selectOneRadio title="test title" label="test label" >
<f:selectItem itemLabel="test 1" itemValue="test 1"/>
<f:selectItem itemLabel="test 2" itemValue="test 2"/>
<f:selectItem itemLabel="test 4" itemValue="test 3"/>
</ice:selectOneRadio>

Rendered HTML:

<fieldset class="iceSelOneRb" id="j_idt11:j_idt73" title="test title">
<table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="iceSelOneRb">
<tr>
<td>
<input id="j_idt11:j_idt73:_1" name="j_idt11:j_idt73" onblur="setFocus('');" onfocus="setFocus(this.id);" onkeypress="Ice.util.radioCheckboxEnter(form,this,event);" type="radio" value="test 1" />
<label class="iceSelOneRb" for="j_idt11:j_idt73:_1">test 1</label>
</td>
<td>
<input id="j_idt11:j_idt73:_2" name="j_idt11:j_idt73" onblur="setFocus('');" onfocus="setFocus(this.id);" onkeypress="Ice.util.radioCheckboxEnter(form,this,event);" type="radio" value="test 2" />
<label class="iceSelOneRb" for="j_idt11:j_idt73:_2">test 2</label>
