Forms
Which fields on this form have no accessible name?
A form is two readings that people usually take separately: whether each field can be identified by somebody not looking at it, and what the field will accept. Both are here, one row per field, ranked so the fields with no name at all sit above the ones that merely reject silently - and the form’s own method and action are printed with them.

What this actually is
labels, names, errors and autocomplete, per fieldBefore any form ships, and on a form that is rejecting input for a reason nobody can see. The contract panel is also the fastest way to find out where a form actually posts on a page built by somebody else.
Asked about this diagnostic
4 of themDoes it read what I have typed into the form?
No. It reads the fields, their labels and their constraints. Values are never read, which is also why a password field is no different here from any other.
Why is a placeholder not a label?
Because it disappears the moment somebody types, and it is not announced as a name by most screen readers. A field whose only identification is a placeholder is reported as unnamed, which is what it is.
What does the contract panel show?
The form’s method and action - where the input actually goes. On a page with several forms that is often the fastest way to tell which one you are looking at.
It says a field rejects silently. What does that mean?
The field has a `pattern` or a `min`/`max` with no message and no visible description, so a person who fails it gets a browser bubble at best and nothing at worst.
