Seems to be fine in IE, but in Firefox you cannot get keyboard focus
onto the Flash without using the mouse.


I suspect http://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/FP-1219 is why you can't 
move focus into the Flash without the keyboard.


The more usual problem in Firefox is not being able to move focus /out/ 
of the Flash object.



Just spotted
http://blogs.adobe.com/accessibility/2009/04/firefox_focus_and_actual_links_1.html
 but
this sounds as if it relies on the actionscript within the Flash itself
being written in a particular way, and possibly on the javascript used
to embed the flash into the HTML page.


Interesting, hadn't seen that before.

I'm not sure the technique is dependent on how you embed it, but it does 
look dependent on the JS DOM focus() method to move focus out of the 
Flash object.


So I'd suggest the answer to your wondering is no. :(

There's no need for an anchor; put an id atribute in :

[WSG] using skip links

[Ben Lau]

Hi all,

I am to build templates for a page, and below is a pseudo example of my code
order:

-skip to #content-
[div#navigation]

[h1]
[div#promotion]
[div.content]

I've always believed my h1 should always come after the 'content' anchor (or
within a #content div), so when screen reader skips my navigation to the
content, they're able to read the h1 as well. Ideally I'd like to connect
the h1 and div.content together, however I'm stuck with the div#promotion in
between as I need to adhere to the visual layout.

I was thinking of inserting another skip link to .content (and add another
anchor name before it), so it'll read as:

-skip to #pageContent-
[div#navigation]

[h1]
-skip promotion to #content-
[div#promotion]

[div.content]

My question is, is it bad to have a skip link right after you've skipped
from the top?
(hope I've explained it well...)

Thanks,
Ben
