I have spent a few years banging on about ensuring scrolling areas on a page are accessible to keyboard-only users.

When…

"Vestibular disorder" is an umbrella term used to encompass many different conditions that affect the inner ear and those parts of the central nervous system involved in maintaining balance. Vestibular disorders can result from or be worsened by injuries, genetic or environmental conditions, or occur for unknown reasons. There are more than twenty-five known vestibular disorders. Each is unique, but many share common diagnostic traits, which can make it difficult for healthcare professionals to easily differentiate them. The most commonly diagnosed vestibular disorders include benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV), labyrinthitis or vestibular neuritis, Ménière’s disease, and secondary endolymphatic hydrops. Vestibular disorders also include superior semicircular canal dehiscence, acoustic neuroma, perilymph fistula, ototoxicity, enlarged vestibular aqueduct, migraine-associated vertigo, and Mal de Sébarquement. Other problems related to vestibular dysfunction include complications from aging, autoimmune disorders, and allergies.

Greetings, fellow book lovers and accessibility enthusiasts! I'm Crystal Scott, a dedicated Web Accessibility Engineer and a fervent advocate for inclusive digital spaces. The idea for this book club sprouted from my personal mission to intertwine my love for reading with my professional pursuit of promoting accessibility and inclusivity. As I embarked on setting my 2024 goals, the desire to 'read more in 2024' stood prominently at the forefront. This led to the creation of a unique platform – a book club where professionals, learners, and advocates in the field of accessibility could come together, share insights, and grow collectively. I am thrilled to have Zenyth's support in this endeavor, providing us with a space to host our book list.

TL;DR: Probably don’t use disclosure widgets in fieldsets. If you do it anyway, don’t put the trigger in the legend.
