NOTE: Unless you have access to the CSS code of your website, and know how to use it, many of the items in this section may be out of your control. If you find some errors that you are not able to fix, send a note to your web hosting company, telling them the problems you noticed, and that youd like them to ensure that their web templates are accessible by ADA standards.

Put your cursor in your address bar, and "tab" through your webpage, checking for the following: _____ Visual focus: the focus is clearly visible as you tab through the elements (usually a dotted line or a highlighted box around whatever is currently in focus)

_____ Tab to all: you can tab to all page elements, including links, form fields, buttons, and media player controls. _____ Tab away: you can tab away from all elements that you can tab into. _____ Tab order: the tab order follows the logical reading order in sequence. _____ All functionality by keyboard: you can do everything (activate actions, select options, control media, etc.) with the keyboard. _____ Drop-down lists: after you tab into a drop-down list, you can use the arrow keys to move through all the options without triggering an action _____ Image links: when images are links, they have clear visual focus and can be activated using the keyboard (usually by pressing the Enter key). _____ Media player controls: any media (videos, audio recordings, podcasts) can be controlled with the keyboard.
