Keyboard navigation user cannot tell when a menu has a submenu on the mega-menu #60

Not sure how we can resolve this.

When i uses keyboard navigation and focus is set on the About AHA! there is no indication that this menu option has a sub-menu.

aah this one is a good catch .

Shawn, is the js menu you used considered accessible or should we write our own?

Team, what are industry standards on these menus?

mehdia commented 10 years ago

I have tested this with my screen reader user,it works fine.The sub menu is accessible .

Hi all,

I agree the screen reader will announce the fact that there is a sub menu options due to the aria attributes This is only an issue is with the keyboard navigation.

Maybe we can have a small icon indicating the there are more options

maybe something like this?
