Why is this script not working? WordPress

The keyboard navigation script on the following page does not work in Safari on Mac. It seems to work in everything else I test it on though, including Safari on Windows.

If you can fix it, please post the code change below :)


This is part of a new menu plugin for WordPress for improving menu accessibility. It allows you to tab onto a dropdown menu, then navigate around using the arrow keys, escape key etc. much like a menu in a Windows application.


Thanks for you time.

Hi,

In your keyboard.js script,
Find all instance of $('.sf-menu a')

try changing it to

$('.sf-menu>li>a')

or change it to

$('ul.sf-menu>li>a')

or change it to

$('ul.sf-menu>li')

Depending on where you want the keyboard scripts to bind itself to li or a

Hope it helps.

Thanks.
Denzel

Thanks. I've implemented that change, but don't have a Mac to test on so will need to wait till someone pops online that I can ask to test it :)

That didn't work at all unfortunately. I eventually discovered it didn't work on Mac Safari, but then later realised it didn't work on anything else either.

Do you have a working example of this you could show me?

Yours is the only usable looking solution here, the rest seem to involve replacing jQuery which is no good for a publicly released plugin.

It's not working via IE.

If your problem still not solved then copy this jquery

[[LINK href="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.5.1.min.js"]]http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.5.1.min.js[[/LINK]]

and change with this one.

P.S: Please backup your jquery.js and if your problem still stay notify me.

best regards,

You shouldn't suggest people hack their core files like that either. You should instruct people to unhook the existing jQuery and load in a new one like Sebastian suggested below.

Try to paste this code in functions.php just after <?php

function seb_init_script() {
if (!is_admin()) {
wp_deregister_script( 'jquery' );
wp_register_script( 'jquery', 'https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.4.2/jquery.min.js');
wp_enqueue_script( 'jquery' );
}
}

add_action('init', 'seb_init_script');
