I was unable to successfully navigate or use the paper element demo page. iI tried with NVDA in Firefox and IE and window eyes in IE and Firefox. Unless I am missing something The demo page(s) navigation menu items are not exposed as interactive element and are not focusable. The demo pages do not include basic semantic structures such as headings, lists etc, which make it very difficult to use with a screen reader (or indeed with the keyboard alone). > > Steve Faulkner <[email protected] <javascript:>> wrote: > > > > > > > > > Would the fact that we have the animated-pages component in there make > > > any difference? > > > > > > > I just did some quick testing on the paper input demo page: > > > > Using Window Eyes 8.4 and IE 11 I was able to navigate to the text > inputs > > (using either the tab key or the E shortcut key) and they worked as > > expected most of the time.
