Option to skip repeated content #14

Open SteveRyan-ASU opened 5 years ago

SteveRyan-ASU commented 5 years ago

Need to reorder the included skip to content link so that it occurs before the ASU Header module is loaded. This will ensure that the link is the first link seen by screen readers.

Additional context

From the accessibility study document:

The first element on the page is a link to "Report an accessibility problem" not "Skip to Main Page Content". The first interactive element of every page should always be a link to skip to the main content area. Having two links makes the tabbing more difficult. In order to access the main content area through this link, you have to tab pass the two links and then tab back.
