From 8026797012a0cbdce357a5c47304134fec9eca73 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Derick Montague Date: Tue, 16 Feb 2021 09:47:03 -0600 Subject: Fix skip link 404 error on refresh bug Problem: When a user uses the skip link anchor to skip the navigation, the route was being changed to /#main-content. This route does not exist. If a user were to manually refresh the page, it would return a 404. This link is critical to meet accessibility guidelines and is needed by users that navigate with a keyboard. The challenge is that we need to mirror a full page refresh on all route changes, so we set focus on the app-header element on each route change. When we click the skip to navigation link, there should not be a route change. All we need is to set focus on the
element so that the user can tab to the first tabbable element in the main content section. Solution: - Use a native element with an attached click event handler - Prevent the default action of adding the hash to the URL - Create a global mixin to reuse for route changes and skip link activation - Emit an event that can be listened for to call the global mixin Signed-off-by: Derick Montague Change-Id: I4c2301b02f608eeb376ed2d1bd809f3d5c1bf545 --- tests/unit/__snapshots__/AppHeader.spec.js.snap | 1 - 1 file changed, 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'tests/unit') diff --git a/tests/unit/__snapshots__/AppHeader.spec.js.snap b/tests/unit/__snapshots__/AppHeader.spec.js.snap index 3e5c91eb..02d99b16 100644 --- a/tests/unit/__snapshots__/AppHeader.spec.js.snap +++ b/tests/unit/__snapshots__/AppHeader.spec.js.snap @@ -8,7 +8,6 @@ exports[`AppHeader.vue should render correctly 1`] = ` appHeader.skipToContent -- cgit v1.2.3
