Hello Mark,

Thank you for your answer!

Yes, the first thing that I reported was the inability to navigate using
the keyboard with tab key and also I reported about the menu which
doesn't have link elements and only has the div elements.

Thank you for your tips,

I will surely use them when doing my next reports!

Thank you again!
