Fixes #908
Note: These changes solve this issue independent of the corresponding changes made to phpally in this pull request.
Issue:
As of recent, UCF instructional designers have been complaining about a bug that flags HTML elements with the
background-color: transparent
style as having insufficient contrast with their background. A pull request was recently made to address this particular issue in phpally, making any elements with the transparent style inherit the background color of their parent element. The changes in the phpally pull request successfully got rid of the false positives, however, they could not address the scenario where there might actually be some color contrast issues. This is where this pull request comes in.Solution:
To address this issue, the changes made in this pull request will at first scan the HTML of any canvas page to look for any elements with the
background-color: transparent
style. If such elements are found, then UDOIT will change the HTML elements to inherit the background color of their parent element, which allows the user to change the true background color of the elements, and resolve any contrast issues resulting from them.
