Accordion
On this page
User should be able to:
Ensure information, structure, and relationships conveyed through presentation can be programmatically determined or are available in text. This means use proper HTML elements to structure your content, so it makes sense when read by assistive technology.
WCAG 2.1 Understanding 1.3.1Ensure all functionality of the content is operable through a keyboard interface. This allows users who can't use a mouse or touchscreen to navigate and use your content.
WCAG 2.1 Understanding 2.1.1If a Web page can be navigated sequentially and the navigation sequences affect meaning or operation, focusable components receive focus in an order that preserves meaning and operability.
WCAG 2.1 Understanding 2.4.3Any keyboard operable user interface has a mode of operation where the keyboard focus indicator is visible.
WCAG 2.1 Understanding 2.4.7Changing the setting of any user interface component does not automatically cause a change of context unless the user has been advised of the behavior before using the component.
WCAG 2.1 Understanding 3.2.2For all user interface components (including but not limited to: form elements, links and components generated by scripts), the name and role can be programmatically determined; states, properties, and values that can be set by the user can be programmatically set; and notification of changes to these items is available to user agents, including assistive technologies.
