 An error container class="ui-helper-hidden-accessible" is made with aria-
 live="assertive", but it does not contain a WAI-ARIA attribute that will
 make sure all assistive technologies can read the error message after more
 than one invalid submission.

 Adding the aria-atomic="true" to the error container tag will ensure
 assistive technologies can read the message after more than one invalid
 submission.
