Missing <html lang>

<html lang> attribute is missing

The lang attribute on <html> is required for screen readers and WCAG 3.1.1 compliance.

Content-Language header is set

Got: en

Language signals are inconsistent

The <html lang> attribute and Content-Language header should agree.

Page Language ——Content-Language Header enConsistent No—

The lang attribute on <html> is required for screen readers and WCAG 3.1.1 compliance.

Why this matters

Without a lang attribute, screen readers mispronounce every word on the page.

Learn more ▾

An HTML element without lang="..." causes screen readers to fall back to the user's default voice — a French page read in English sounds like nonsense. Setting lang on the <html> element is a one-character fix that lets every assistive tool pronounce content correctly.

The <html lang> attribute and Content-Language header should agree.

Why this matters

<html lang>, Content-Language, or og:locale disagree — pick one source of truth and align the others.

Learn more ▾

Browsers and assistive tech use different sources for language. When they disagree, behavior is undefined: some pronounce by <html lang>, some by Content-Language. Decide on the canonical language for the page and set all signals to match.

Viewport prevents zooming

Viewport meta tag is present

width=device-width is set

Viewport prevents user zooming

user-scalable=no or maximum-scale < 2 prevents users from zooming. This is a WCAG 1.4.4 (Level AA) failure and an accessibility barrier for users with low vision.

Got: width=device-width, initial-scale=1, maximum-scale=1, minimum-scale=1, user-scalable=no, viewport-fit=cover Expected: width=device-width, initial-scale=1 (without zoom restrictions)

User zooming BLOCKED

WCAG 1.4.4 violation — users with low vision cannot zoom. Remove user-scalable=no and set maximum-scale to at least 5.0.

user-scalable=no or maximum-scale < 2 prevents users from zooming. This is a WCAG 1.4.4 (Level AA) failure and an accessibility barrier for users with low vision.

Why this matters

user-scalable=no is a WCAG 1.4.4 failure and creates ADA/EAA legal exposure — low-vision users rely on pinch-zoom every day.

Learn more ▾

Setting user-scalable=no (or maximum-scale=1) in the viewport meta blocks pinch-zoom. WCAG 2.1 success criterion 1.4.4 (Resize Text) requires zoom up to 200%. ADA lawsuits against inaccessible US sites have risen sharply; the EU Accessibility Act adds another enforcement layer in 2025. Remove user-scalable and maximum-scale from the viewport meta.
