Keyboard accessible

[chris]

Hello,

I am using the AsyncUpload control on a site and we have to make the site ADA compliant. Is there a way to make this control keyboard friendly? Using Access Keys or being able to opening to select file popup with with space bar or enter key?

Thank you,
Chris Marfia

Hello Chris,

Take a look at the following demo.

Shinu,

This Seems like it should work but my control does not have those classes or buttons for some reason it is using the silverlight object. Is there a way I can prevent that from happening or have a way to make it keyboard accessible in all scenarios?

Shinu,

I have uninstalled silverlight and I have been trying the example you sent me to. It seems from my findings that the onClientAdded() is happening before the ruFileInput files is added to the row. If there is a method that happens after that, that I will be able to use to find that element in the row?

Edit:

I have walked through this on the console with FireFox and Chrome and this is what I get:

>>> row.children.item("ruFileWrap").children

[input.ruFakeInput, input.ruButton Browse]

On the OnClientAdded() the last input has not been created yet. The FileInput is created 3 methods down from the onClientAdded event according to the stack.

Hello Chris,

When Silverlight/Flash module is used, it is not possible to have a keyboard navigation. To disable modules, you should set the DisablePlugins property  to true. The event arguments of the OnClientAdded event handler contains a reference to the row which is going to be added.
