Ensure text and images of text provide sufficient contrast

[New] - 3/16/2018

[Issue]

"All chat messages are archived and can be read by any site participant. Showing 1 messages out of 1" and "Enter chat message" text in gray(#888888) color against white(#FFFFFF) color have a color contrast ratio of 3.5:1 which is not sufficient. This ratio is below the WCAG 2.0 requirement of 4.5:1 or more for text less than 18 points or text less than 14 points if bold.

[User Impact]

With this contrast ratio users with low vision, users who are color blind, users who see the page without color cannot understand the content.

[Expected Results]

Developers must ensure that they provide sufficient contrast ratio between foreground and background text colors to meet WCAG 2.0 requirement of 4.5:1 or more.Developers can use the following link to check color contrast ratio:https://www.levelaccess.com/compliance-resource/color-contrast-checker/
