Domain-specific¶
- Focus-Order Failure
- A screen reader announces elements in DOM order; a keyboard user tabs in DOM or tabindex order
This sourceStates that screen readers announce in source (DOM) order and that keyboard focus order follows source order or positive tabindex values (Technique C27 for WCAG 2.4.3). W3C techniques F44 and C27, which treat a tabindex order departing from content order as a failure of SC 2.4.3 and require DOM order to match the intended order.

“If a blind user, who reads the page with a screen reader that follows the source order, is working with a sighted user who reads the page in visual order, they may be confused when they encounter information in different orders.”

Verification¶
Does it exist? Not checked yet. This entry carries no identifier to resolve. It was extracted from the citation as written in the article, normalized, and deduplicated against the rest of the registry.
Does it back the claim? Read against the text for 1 of 1 citation: 1 supported. Each verdict is shown under its citation below, with what in the work backs the sentence.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
