jQuery Tab Widget - Accessibility: The selected tab title is read twice by Windows Narrator #2384
Description
Hi,
I have this issue with the jQuery Tab Widget in the accessibility testing. When I turn on Windows Narrator, it read the selected tab title twice. For example: I use the tabs demo in the jquery-ui-main the Narrator will speak: 'Proin dolor tab item two of three selected, Proin dolor tab item two of three selected'
Please give me your advice in this case, I expected that the Narrator only speaker: 'Proin dolor tab item two of three selected'
Many thanks for your support
Thanks & Best regards,
Nguyen Xuan Viet

Thanks for the report. Does the issue you describe exist when jQuery UI 1.12.1 is used or only with jQuery UI 1.13.0 or newer?

Thanks @mgol, I used the latest version of jQuery UI 1.14.2 released

Duplicate issue: please use this file: jquery-ui-1.14.2/demos/tabs/default.html. Open the Narrator and use left/right arrow to move focus of tab item.

@vietxuannguyen-kofax Thanks for the info. However, for triaging purposes, I still need to know if the issue already existed in jQuery UI 1.12.1 or if it's a more recent regression.
