Diagnoses

Here is how rule engines diagnose the tabindex positive issue for HTML element 559 of the Water for People contact page.

1. Positive <code>tabindex="7"</code> should not be used. Outside of very specific corner cases, a tabindex should not be given a positive integer value. Users who use keyboards to interact with the web expect a web document to be navigable in sequential order, starting at the top left (or right depending on language of the document) and going in order from there.

   Rule engine: ASLint (eSSENTIAL Accessibility)
