Why are my live regions not working?
Posted on by Patrick H. Lauke in Design and development
Live regions have a reputation for being "flaky" and inconsistent. While this can be attributed in part to shortcomings in current implementations, the problem can also be caused by developers misunderstanding how live regions are intended to work.

Building a culture of accessibility
Posted on by Felicity Miners-Jones in Strategy
Accessibility isn't solely important in the final product; it's crucial at every step of the process. Adopting accessible practices from the outset unlocks your team's full potential. This approach not only improves the products you create but also nurtures a culture of inclusivity within your organisation and means your team will more accurately reflect the diversity of your customer base.

When to use tabindex='0'
Posted on by Graeme Coleman in Design and development
When tabindex="0"
is applied to an HTML element, the content marked up using that element will become keyboard focusable, and is therefore a good starting point for supporting keyboard accessibility. However, applying this attribute haphazardly or unnecessarily can reduce the experience for people who use a keyboard or an equivalent input device to navigate web content.
