The direct answer

Interactive elements should be reachable and operable through a keyboard where the interface requires interaction. A visually obvious control can still be unavailable to someone using another input method. For this website package page, the practical test is whether the package comparison and inquiry retain the same approved scope.

Can the page be used without a mouse?

Start with an owner comparing two website packages. The keyboard access check concerns included features, quoted extras and the path to discuss a package. A short summary can contradict the detailed scope or make a repair credit look like cash. Preserve the approved terms across the comparison and quote.

One-location launch work and multi-location work are different scopes. A cloned package table must not conceal branch setup or imply a credit is cash.

Check it on this page

Compare two packages from the overview through the detailed terms, then follow the relevant project inquiry.

  • Tab through the controls in a meaningful order.
  • Open menus and operate links with the keyboard.
  • Check the return from any expanded or modal state in an approved preview.

A shared link treatment underlined an entire content block

One reviewed page applied hover underlining to a large linked area, making the whole block look like linked text. The repair needed to address the scope of the style rather than rewriting the content.

For this website package page, the check focuses on included features, quoted extras and the path to discuss a package. Style the action label deliberately and check the pointer and keyboard states after changing a shared rule.

Repair the source, then check the published result

Repair inaccessible controls and preserve suitable native behavior. Retest entry, interaction and recovery instead of checking only the first focusable element.

Record the keyboard access result for this destination, then repeat the customer route until the package comparison and inquiry retain the same approved scope. If the repair changed a shared component, compare another destination with different approved facts to detect unintended copying.

The linked Benchmark page helps you inspect included features, quoted extras and the path to discuss a package. It is a current example to explore, not evidence that every business has the same problem.
