The thing I wonder about the most is your following statement: > any future sequential navigation or search would > start at this location, etc. Fact is that, if we consider the effect of following a *link* to fragment #foo, then "navigation or search" does *not* start from this location. But perhaps, in AT - at least some AT - this is different? I wish "normal" browsers *did* behave like you say. But tend to not do that. Btw, in bug 12709, I propose that accesskeys on unfocusable elements, should default to be hidden from the user so as not to confuse him or her with accesskeys that do work. And this bug, seems to support what I propose in 12709 - as you suggest that the accesskeys on non-focusable elements should only be revealed to AT. Btw: How does your proposal fit with an element that has been made focusable e.g. via an onClick() event , but which doesn't have @accesskey ? E.g. what if a script "suddenly" makes the element focusable? (The same question could probably be asked about bug 12709.) -- Configure bugmail: http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
