This looks reasonable to me - just a few questions. Rather than reproducing the entire table I have just copied the relevant sections. See [1] for the initial proposal. Regarding control + up arrow and control + down arrow: 8. Control + Up Arrow Moves focus from anywhere in a Pane's Content to its associated Pane Header. Note: No action occurs when focus is in the Pane Header. 9. Control + Down Arrow Moves focus from a Pane Header to the first focusable element in the Pane's Content. Note: No action occurs when focus is in the Pane Content. I like that control + up arrow provides a quick way to get from within the content to the pane header without having to potentially press shift-tab many times. But, I'm not sure how useful control+down arrow is? I would think that just pressing tab to move from the pane header into the content would be the expected behavior. From number 10 that with focus on a pane header pressing tab would move focus to any menu within the pane header. But, I'm not sure if implementing and educating people about control + down arrow is worth it to eliminate that one extra tab stop. For control+F10 to post the button menu in the current pane header is there restriction on where the focus is? Will control+F10 only work if focus is in the pane header or will it also work if focus is anywhere in the pane related to that pane header? 12. Control+F10 If present, posts the button menu in the current Pane Header. Posts the accordion header's menu Occurs only if focus is on the Accordion Header. I have the same focus question for escape? I assume it is only active if focus is within a menu (which would be the case if it was opened via the keyboard). 13. Esc If a button menu is present and it is posted on a Pane Header, the menu closes and no action occurs. Dismisses the Accordion Header's button menu if it is posted. Also, your description mentions defining a method of dismissing [closing] an accordion pane but I don't see it here. The example also allows more than one accordion pane to be open at a time - what is the key mechanism for opening and closing the panes? Is just pressing enter with focus on the title sufficient to toggle the open/close of a pane? thanks, -becky [1] http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/wai-xtech/2007Oct/att-0015/kbd-nav-accordion-pane-dojo-prop.html 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: WebA11y
