Index > Templates and CSS > Skip Navigation: an Accessibility convention concern
Hi. I am a screen reader user, and I find TYPOlight quite accessible. I do have a question, however. In certain places, when one clicks the "Skip navigation" link, they are sent down to something that, to us screen reader users, actually says..."Skip navigation". I get the distinct impression this is supposed to be invisible, but it isn't. I believe you can have an ancor with no text what so ever, just a name, so that's how that would be fixed. is there a way i can modify this myself?

Hi,
the code you are talking about is located in system/modules/frontend/templates/mod_navigation.tpl
I am not sure I have understood what you mean. Do you want to replace the anchor text with an empty string?
Can you point out a screen reader for firefox or opera?

I've noticed that yesterday. It also becomes visible when turning off the styles, and is illogical to anyone who reads it.
Something like
should be changed to become
in the next release.
Not sure where to remove this -- i didn't see it in the nav_ template I'm using...
Something like
Code:
<a id="skipNavigation2" class="invisible">Skip navigation</a>
should be changed to become
Code:
<a id="skipNavigation2"></a>
in the next release.

You can remove it here: /system/modules/frontend/templates/mod_navigation.tpl - however it's not recommended.
