WCAG 3.0 is an active W3C Working Draft in development by the AGWG. Requirements, assertions, the conformance model and reporting tiers are still being developed and may change. The latest published draft is the 10 September 2026 Working Draft; this site follows the editors’ draft, which also includes exploratory provisions.
The focus order leaves out hidden elements, static content and groups of repeated interactive elements.
Why It Matters
Tabbing through invisible or repeated stops wastes keystrokes and makes the focus indicator seem to vanish - a common reason keyboard users abandon a page.
