Analysis

Failed

At least one <iframe> or <frame> tag has an irrelevant title attribute (Test1 returns true for at least one element)

Pre-qualified

The content of the title attribute of all the <iframe> and <frame> tags needs to be manually checked (Test1 returns false for all the elements of Set1)

Not Applicable

The page has no <iframe> or <frame> tag with a title attribute (Set1 is empty)

Notes

The content of the title attribute is considered as not relevant if it is:

• empty,
• or only composed of non-alphanumerical characters,
• or identical to the src attribute.
