Good morning,
I would add to this that it is not ideal to try to add focusability to
an element that does not natively support focus.

Hi Boyan,
the best way to have a tab order and comply with WCAG easily is to
have the content in a order that needs no tab order. This means that
the content is structured and sorted in the way the tab order should
flow. Then you don't need to override the tab order. As a byproduct
the content has a structure that makes for an user with AT more sense.
See 1.3.2 and 2.1.1 among others on http://webaim.org/standards/wcag/checklist
Hope that helps a bit.
Armin

Hi all!
I was trying to force the following tab order of the elements in
Capture for Decapod: thumbnail item, take picture button, fix,
compare, export. Since the buttons are <a> elements, they were
easily ordered (having assigned them positive values for
'tabindex'). However, they do not seem to respond to pressing the
Enter key. Additionally, the thumbnail item is a <li> element and
the only valid values for the tabindex property are -1 or 0 (correct
me if I am wrong here). These make the element focusable or part of
the default tab order but I cannot find a way to make it the first
element of the tab order.
My question is what is the 'proper' way to modify tab order and
enable keyboard navigation in accessible web applications.
Greetings,
Boyan
