Tab issues for screen readers

  • In divi-accessibility-embedded-js.php, the role should be tablist (lowercase l), rather than tabList. With that changed it partially works with a screen reader (tested with NVDA/Firefox) but there are still some issues. When changing from one tab to another with the arrow keys, the name of the tab isn’t announced unless you also press the tab key after the correct tab has been selected. Also, it would be good if the down arrow could move into the tab panel as otherwise a screen reader user wouldn’t know that there was any content in the tab, especially if the tab doesn’t contain any links.

    Hello,

    I’ll try to improve this in a future release. Getting tab navigation working in the first place was very difficult with Divi implementing things the way they are.

    Thanks for your feedback.
