    [simong] Has anyone noticed Chrome not applying a full outline around a button? We’re running into a situation when tabbing onto a button, Chrome puts a small blue outline on the right of the button, backtabbing once through shift+tab, followed by forward tabbing once back to the same button puts the outline around the entire button

  5. [simong] doh, took a screenshot of a different button, but the logic still applies :)

    @simong haven't had that before. can you inspect the button element and see if there's anything that might take focus before the button is reached? what happens if you press enter during the "false focus state"?

    [bethra] @michiel @stevef Could one of you tell me if CCA is open source or if it has copyrights? I'm trying to get approval to download from my new company.

    [karlgroves] Bob: Personally I end to use DLs for that, but the truth is it isn’t complicated enough to worry about. A table is OK, but possibly too verbose.

    [garcialo] @bethra https://github.com/ThePacielloGroup/CCA-Win and https://github.com/ThePacielloGroup/CCA-OSX should answer you question.
  12. [garcialo] oh geez; sorry for that
  13. [garcialo] I blame @stevefaulkner

    [maya] thanks @jaredsmith and @cehfisher! that book is on my reading list, although I assumed it would be more developer-centric
