The following directions are part of a full step-by-step guide to making a HubSpot website WCAG 2.1 AA compliant. These recommendations are intended for websites managed on the HubSpot CMS but can be adapted for other content management systems.
Anything that receives focus should not change context. For example any component that is able to trigger an event such a submit button on a form or a link that opens a new tab or window.
All functionality of a website should be predictable as users navigate around.
Ensure that when focus is on an element to not trigger any changes of context unless it is activated by the user. Allow the user to control the activation via the return/enter key on their keyboard.
