Hi,
Thank you, it is indeed helpful for people to open an issue on GitHub when issues are discovered with a particular widget type, because this helps me keep track of those that are open and provides a means to track related discussions.

Steve, I apologize for not getting back. I remember being confused by the format and not having time later to follow up on it, then it slipped off the radar. Please do me a favor and file an issue on the GitHub project where this widget library includes all of these widgets at
https://github.com/whatsock/tsg
For me to fix anything, it helps me to know which assistive technology you are using, which version, in which browser you are seeing this problem, and an explanation of steps to reproduce, plus a link to the relevant widget you are seeing the bug on. Then I'll be able to diagnose things better.

Thanks,
Bryan

Hello,
This email list and this thread in particular are not a place to report issues like this. Please open an issue at:
https://github.com/WhatSock/accdc/issues
where it can properly be addressed.

AccDC is the best framework I have ever seen in my life from an UX point of view. I am looking for someone to help convert it to ReactJS:
https://github.com/WhatSock/accdc/issues/10
So please comment if you are able to help!
Thanks,
