Language selection in footer
Closed this issue · 3 comments
This issue is about the design of the language selection in the footer.
If you'd consider this as a possible idea for a "nicer" dropdown, I just checked the mark-up and found something very interesting about it:
A click event listens on Deutschland and the flag img, the elements container got:
aria-haspopup="listbox"
and aria-expanded="false"
as attributes.
On click, the aria-expandet changes to true, and the ul with all the other languages also has the aria-haspopup="listbox"
which creates the connection between the original selection and the pop-up.
This is a valid case of how to use those aria attributes according to: https://www.w3.org/TR/wai-aria/#aria-haspopup and will give us the chance to create a pretty dropdown without the cost of a11y.
