Using Pop-ups with Assistive Technology


Some links open secondary windows for completing page-specific tasks. These links should indicate that they open in a new window using a title attribute. Use the Down Arrow and Tab keys to read the contents of the pop-up. The last options on the pop-up should be buttons to cancel or complete the task. Occasionally, these buttons are in a separate frame on the pop-up.

If you primarily navigate the web using a screen reader, it is recommended that you select the Show secondary windows as pop-ups option in the Account Settings tool.
