Incorrectly labeled entries in list division
Summary
Incorrectly labeled entries in list division, e.g. <FS:ELMT ofst=35242 tag="DIV">EXAMPLE 1
Example:
- Go to https://www.w3.org/TR/wai-aria-1.1/
- Press Ctrl+INS+Z
Expected result
All list entries are displayed correctly, i.e. with their labels or text content.
Actual result
Many list entries are displayed with an addition in angle brackets (e.g. FS:ELMT ofst=35242 tag="DIV"), which looks like source code and leads to an incomprehensible output by the screen reader.

Additional Information
JAWS version and build number
JAWS 2019.1904.60
Operating System and version
Windows 10
Browser and version:
IE 11, Firefox, Chrome (always current version)
The problem does not occur in Edge, but only because the function is not available in Edge.
Tested and confirmed is still visible when looking at a page division list with JAWS 2020.2006.12 in both Chrome 84 and IE11. However, the problem does not occur in FF 79 as the text is visibly readable and properly read out by JAWS. This leads me to believe it's a bug with Chrome and not JAWS. @BenKeyFSI are you already aware of this issue and can you confirm it's browser related rather than a bug with JAWS? I'll file a bug with chromium if i don't see a clearly related open issue in their public repo.
tested in JAWS 2024.2310.70 and chrome Version 119.0.6045.124 (Official Build) (64-bit) get same issue as described.
