focusable selector
Description: Selects elements which can be focused.
jQuery( ":focusable" )
Some elements are natively focusable, while others require explicitly setting a tab index. In all cases, the element must be visible in order to be focusable.
Elements of the following type are focusable if they are not disabled: input
, select
, textarea
, button
, and object
. Anchors are focusable if they have an href
or tabindex
attribute. area
elements are focusable if they are inside a named map, have an href
attribute, and there is a visible image using the map. All other elements are focusable based solely on their tabindex
attribute and visibility.
Note: Elements with a negative tab index are :focusable
, but not :tabbable
.
Example:
Select focusable elements and highlight them with a red border.
