Bug ID: 39209
Summary: Cookie consent banner should be 'focused' on load
Change sponsored?: ---
Product: Koha
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P5 - low

We've had an accessibility audit highlight that the cookie consent banner is
'in a strange order' for keyboard navigation.
> Issue
> • The cookie banner current sits in a slightly odd place in the focus order,
> coming after the ‘Advanced Search’ link
> • This might be somewhat disorientating for screen reader users. It may also
> be frustrating for sighted keyboard users who would like want to dismiss
> this
> prior to exploring the page
>
> Solution
> • Review the order of focus (by tabbing through the page) to ensure the
> journey users take through the page and within elements is the most logical
> and efficient, and matches the visible order of content
> • Move the cookie banner so it can be dismissed as the first action on the
> page
> • NB – avoid using positive tabindex values to artificially modify the focus
> order
I've researched this a little and there's evidence that moving the banner to
the top is detrimental to engagement. Other research suggests that as soon as
a cookie banner appears, it should take the initial keyboard focus.
I propose we take the later approach and if the cookie consent banner is
present on the page it should take the first focus point until dismissed at
which point the focus should be reset.
