Are “QuickLinks” dropdown lists accessible?
A growing number of websites use a single drop-down list of links that takes the user immediately to a selected link, without requiring that the user press a Submit button. For people who can’t use a mouse because of a visual impairment or physical disability, these form fields present problems since they automatically select the first field that a user arrows to and activate that link. The user is therefore unable to scroll down any farther in the list. The solution is to always provide a Go button and to avoid using onSelect or onChange events in dropdown lists.
