Re: DHTML Style Guide WG meeting Notes August 10, 2007

>From the style guide minutes:

2.  Radio Buttons- Proposed
·        Tab key will enter the radio group.
·        Tab again will exit the radio group. 
·        When tabbing into the group a second time you should return to 
the point of previous focus (which should be the one that is checked)
·        Up and down arrows will move between the buttons in the group. 
·        When the arrow moves focus, the button is selected.
·        Last arrow at bottom should wrap to top
·        Up arrow at top should wrap to bottom

Is there any reason that left/right should not also work?  That's the way 
Win native radio button groups work and also how <input type="radio" ...> 
works on FF2 and IE7.

There is an example on this page about 1/4 the way down:
