Re: keyboard accessibility of Image map

Valahogy levágták eredeti válaszomat ahol feleltem kérdésére. Ismételem:

When tabbing through an imagemap, I sometimes think I've lost focus
because the outline indicating focus is so easily lost in the image
itself, all the while that keyboard focus is accessible and working.

Several utilities are available to emphasize keyboard focus location.  I
use the "Show Highlight Rectangle" of Microsoft's Inspect Object (64-bit
UNICODE Release).  Keep in mind with any of these utilities that they're
an aid to finding focus, not a proof of focus.  Sometimes they will show
focus beyond what screen readers use, in which case such items may not
be keyboard accessible.
