keyboard TAB selection is not visible

I have an angular application, when I use keyboard TAB to move around the elements, current focused element is not highlighting.



This is how it looks like when I TAB to an element



enter image description here



This is when I then click on space to expand the accordionTab
enter image description here



I then added the following CSS but it's working only on mouse hover BUT not on tab selection.



::ng-deep {
.ui-accordion-header:hover, .ui-accordion-header:active, .ui-accordion-header:focus {
border: solid #00a1cf 1px !important;
}
}


enter image description here



I had been testing, it is working when I force select focus in chrome developer tools but not when I keyboard tab select.



enter image description here



I am unable to figure out why its not highlighting when focused using keyboard TAB. Can anyone help me out? Thanks in advance :)

  • Are you using a third party library like angular material for your accordion? If so, you may want to check their documentation for intercepting keyboard events and focusing on their elements. Good general discussions about this on MDN-Widgets, and MDN-Focus and Selection

What does the markup look like? Normally when tabbing to focus the elements that have focus by default are:




  • a (anchors)

  • buttons

  • inputs

  • textareas


If you have a different type of element such as a div, you can try and give it focus by adding tabindex to your markup.
