The proposal for navigation of menus and menubars is documented in the PF Wiki [1]. I don't believe that menu behavior has been finalized, thus, I would like to propose a modification to the behavior described. Specifically I propose that, in order to match the behavior for disabled buttons, disabled menu items do NOT receive focus. This is consistent with how the Macintosh treats menu items and buttons but is different than Windows. I think it makes sense for widget focus to behave consistently within Web Applications hosted within the browser. The Dojo Open Source widget tookit is planning to implement a consistent focus behavior for the widgets. Disabled buttons will not receive focus, disabled buttons within a toolbar will not receive focus, and disabled menu items will not receive focus. However, we would appreciate feedback from this group. thanks, -becky [1] http://esw.w3.org/topic/MenuWidget Becky Gibson Web Accessibility Architect IBM Emerging Internet Technologies 5 Technology Park Drive Westford, MA 01886 Voice: 978 399-6101; t/l 333-6101 Email: gibsonb@us.ibm.com blog: WebA11yReceived on Monday, 17 September 2007 16:32:58 GMT
