<h2>When to Use</h2>
<p>All technologies.</p>
</section><section id="description"><h2>Description</h2>
<p>This describes the failure condition that results when a Web page opens a dialog or menu interface component embedded on the page in a way that makes it difficult for a keyboard user to operate because of its position in the sequential navigation order. When the user opens the dialog or menu embedded on the page by activating a button or link, their next action will be to interact with the dialog or menu. If focus is not set to the dialog or menu, and it is not adjacent to the trigger control in the sequential navigation order, it will be difficult for the keyboard user to operate the dialog or menu.</p>

<section class="example">
<h3>Adding a dialog or menu embedded on the page to the end of the sequential navigation order</h3>

<p>When a DHTML menu or dialog is activated, it is created dynamically, positioned visually near the trigger, and appended to the end of the DOM. Because it is appended to the end of the DOM, it is at the end of the sequential navigation order. The user must tab through the rest of the web page before they can interact with the dialog or menu.</p>

<div role="note">
<p>Dismissing a dialog or menu means to close it without taking any action on it. For example: a modal dialog opens on a web page and displays a sign-up form for a mailing list. A user dismisses the dialog by either pressing a "close" button or using the <kbd>Escape</kbd> key.</p>
</div>

<div role="note">
<p>Sometimes it's not possible to return focus to the control the user activated to open a dialog. For example: a blog post has a list of tags, each tag containing a delete button. Pressing a delete button opens a modal dialog that asks the user to confirm the deletion. On confirming the deletion, the tag is deleted, the modal dialog closes, and focus is placed on the next tag in the list of tags. Placing focus onto a different, but logical, control is not a failure of Success Criterion 2.4.3.</p>

<h2>Examples</h2>
<section class="example">
<h3>Adding a dialog to the page at the end of the sequential navigation order</h3>
<p>A non native HTML dialog is created, with its code at the end of the DOM (Document Object Model). The dialog is visually positioned above the content of the page and the user's focus isn't moved to the dialog. Because the dialog's code is at the end of the DOM, it is at the end of the keyboard navigation order. Because the user's focus isn't manage, they must tab through the rest of the web page before they can interact with the dialog or menu.</p>
</section>
<section class="example">
<h3>Setting focus to the document after dismissing a menu embedded on the page</h3>

<p>When a menu is dismissed, it is removed or hidden from the web page and focus is set to the document. The user must tab from the beginning of the navigation sequence to reach the point from which the menu was opened.</p>
