Long Descriptions in Context Menu

Right-click on anything with a "longdesc" or "aria-describedat" attribute to access its long description.

The "Long Descriptions in Context Menu" Chrome extension enhances web accessibility by allowing users to easily access long descriptions linked to images and other elements. It introduces a context menu option to right-click any element with a "longdesc" or "aria-describedat" attribute and open its detailed description instantly.

Additionally, the extension can highlight images with long descriptions by adding a colored border, visually indicating the presence of more information. This tool bridges the gap for users who do not use screen readers but still want to access important descriptive content on the web compliant with HTML and ARIA standards.
