Accessible Breadcrumb Navigation - 0 views

  • screen reader support for aria-current is rather good
  • ...2 more annotations...
  • Some other breadcrumb patterns remove the <a> element, or at least the href from the link. These examples retain the a href for current link, as without it, people using a screen reader and navigating by links, or via focusable content with the tab key would not come across the currently active link.
  • Breadcrumbs are useful on large websites where pages have clearly defined hierarchy.
