Manual Tabs Activation example: screen reader is skipping first part of content #1745

Open elogle opened 3 years ago

In the Manual Tabs Activation example, when a tab is selected and the user tabs to the tab content and starts reading, the first part of the tab content is skipped. Only the second part of the content is available. I was using JAWS in Chrome.

The problem also occurs with the other tab examples; also in other browsers like Edge, Firefox, IE 11; but only with JAWS and not with NVDA.

The cause is the aria-labelledby on the tabpanel. If this is removed, the entire content of the tabpanel is output when it is focused. Alternatively, not the tabpanel should get the focus, but an element at the beginning of the tabpanel. Or a ticket is filed at Freedom Scientific if this is a JAWS bug

Sounds like a JAWS bug to me
