Call to action

Keyboard interactions

Users should have the ability to navigate to and interact with calls to action using their keyboard.

Key	Result
Tab	Moves focus to the next call to action or interactive element
Shift+Tab	Moves focus to the previous call to action or interactive element
Enter	Activates a link
Enter	Hides or reveals a panel below a Brick variant

Focus order

A logical focus order helps keyboard users operate our websites. Elements need to receive focus in an order that preserves meaning, therefore the focus order should make sense and not jump around randomly. For grouped calls to action, the focus order is from left to right and top to bottom.

Touch targets

Grouped calls to action are adequately spaced for optimal touch targets.

Screen reader guidelines

Calls to action should communicate the following to users:

• Their intended purpose or function
• The toggle state when a panel is hidden or visible
• An instruction that a panel will open
