    [heidi] hello. Question about WCAG and scope of third party stuff: if a website passes at AA, but also has links to a third-party site for, say, event ticket functionality (at a different URL), and that site does not pass, are they thought to be two different sites or does the first actually have partial-conformance because an inaccessible third party site is used? Hopefully that made sense.

    @heidi you need to read the understanding conformance document. https://www.w3.org/TR/UNDERSTANDING-WCAG20/conformance.html#uc-conformance-requirements-head . It depends if the 3rd party site is part of a process.

    [quidkid] so for menus, i currently have it so you can tab through and focus is trapped, however, after the remediation review, i was told i need to switch navigation within the slider menu to arrows not tab. so i’ll be taking it out of the tab index for sure but how do i get it to iterate with arrow keys without manually setting each event to the next one

    [marcysutton] @quidkid you could use event delegation and event.target

    [quidkid] @marcysutton not quite sure what you mean but googling that up now. thank you so much for replying!
  8. [marcysutton] this is a larger scope than a menu but you might want to read this post https://www.christianheilmann.com/2016/08/15/better-keyboard-navigation-with-progressive-enhancement/
