Lectora 18 Skip Navigation help

smcculley1282

Hello.

Attached I have a file with a Skip Navigation setup that worked great in Lectora 16. In Lectora 18, it doesn't work though. The skip nav button (you have tab to it to make it appear) shows up fine, but when I select the enter button and hit the tab button again, instead of the focus going to the page content, the focus goes to the navigation buttons instead.

Has anybody had success with a skip nav in Lectora 18, and if so, can you look at my code and see what I might be doing wrong?

Thanks.

I guess I'm not familiar with a 'skip navigation' setup - what exactly are you trying to accomplish with it?

Hi Adam. Its for 508 accessibility. It will allow keyboard only users to skip over the repetitive navigation buttons on each page and get to the content quicker with less keystrokes. Keyboard only users navigate the page using the Tab key. When the skip nav button appears and is selected with the enter key, the next tab should take the user to the content instead of the navigation buttons, which is what it is currently doing.

oh, gotcha - I took a look, but a bit outside of my area, sorry (I don't work in 508).  I know others do, so hopefully they can lend a hand!
