Can you do me a favor and let me know how these examples work for you?
Works great for able bodied mouse users.
But how are people with mobility impairments like low dexterity (unable to use a pointing device like a mouse and instead must use keyboard or switch) able to use it? It doesn't seem to work via keyboard.
WCAG Guideline 9. Design for device-independence:
"Use features that enable activation of page elements via a variety of input devices. Device-independent access means that the user may interact with the user agent or document with a preferred input (or output) device -- mouse, keyboard, voice, head wand, or other. If, for example, a form control can only be activated with a mouse or other pointing device, someone who is using the page without sight, with voice input, or with a keyboard or who is using some other non-pointing input device will not be able to use the form."
