Why is it that all HTML based widget sets have crummy keyboard support compared to their native desktop counterparts?

- rgrove 15y agoIs there a specific YUI widget you're unhappy with?
- WayneDB 15y agoIn the Widgets section of the complete YUI Examples page [1], the only component that seems to support the keyboard at all is the Dial widget. The Calendar, DataTable, MenuNav, Slider and TabView don't seem to have the default keyboard-ability that their desktop equivalents do.

- rgrove 15y agoOf the components you named, MenuNav and TabView both have keyboard support. Did you try using the arrow keys? I agree that the keyboard support for Slider and Calendar could be improved. You didn't mention AutoComplete, which also has excellent keyboard support.
