Re: Accessible Mega Menu and Safari

Regarding support with VoiceOver on the Mac, I ran a test with chrome and VoiceOver and the mega menu did not auto collapse. I then went to my event testing page (https://labs.ssbbartgroup.com/index.php/Event_Watcher) and used the control+option+left arrow keys to move around several different types of controls to see what might be causing the issue. I find that with VoiceOver in Safari an extra blur event is being fired between focus events -- that is when some elements are focused with control+option+left arrow a focus event followed by a blur event followed by a focus event all on the same element are fired. This is not the case when tab is pressed. This seems like a bug.
