To make it robust, it needs to be hidden visually but appear when focused using `transform: translateY(-100%)` instead of magic pixel numbers, and the target container (e.g., `
`) must have a matching `id` and `tabindex="-1"` so it can programmatically receive focus across all browsers. **Action:** Always include a visually hidden 'Skip to main content' link immediately after the opening `` tag.

Screen readers announce them as links rather than buttons, and native anchor tags do not trigger via the 'Spacebar' key like native buttons do. +**Action:** When using anchor tags as buttons, enforce accessibility by adding `role="button"` and `aria-haspopup="dialog"`. Additionally, bind a JavaScript `keydown` event listener for the `Spacebar` key (using `e.preventDefault()` to stop default page scrolling), as native anchors only trigger on `Enter`, whereas screen readers and keyboard users expect buttons to respond to both. diff --git a/concepts.html b/concepts.html index d4e1807..13b8873 100644 --- a/concepts.html +++ b/concepts.html @@ -19,7 +19,7 @@
