Feature: #106637 - Implement accessible combobox pattern
See forge#106637
Description
A new ARIA 1.2–compliant combobox web component has been introduced, replacing the legacy value picker select pattern. The implementation follows the W3C accessibility guidelines and provides complete keyboard navigation support.
FormEngine elements, including
Email,
Input, and
Number, have been updated to
use the new combobox component instead of the previous value picker
implementation. The link browser components have also been adapted to use the
combobox pattern.
Impact
The new combobox component offers full keyboard navigation using the arrow keys, Enter, Tab, and Escape.
It includes visual selection indicators with checkmarks and a clear button for resetting the input value, improving accessibility and overall usability in the TYPO3 backend.
