Switching Review Cursor with Focus Cursor

Abdulqadir Ahmad
 

Lol, by not on the same page, i meant we aren't speaking of the same thing not literally the page.
It now works. I was focusing on the selected part. If i click enter on c++ and scroll, i will notice the last one, which is javascript in this case will be selected. Thank you.

We were on the same page, but by language, I thought you meant language in which the page is displayed.  I saw what you are now describing, but I thought you were not discussing that. 

I am not a coder, but the page appears to work as expected.  BEing in browse mode and moving through the tabs changes nothing.  If I press enter on a tab, I hear selected and the page changes.  A few lines under the tabs, if I press enter on C++, I see the following line:
// C++ code for recursive bubble sort algorithm
If I then move to the JavaScript tab and press enter, again, a few lines below the tabs I see this:
// JavaScript code for recursive bubble sort algorithm

If there is something else occurring that I'm not discussing, please discuss that.

Hi gene. It looks like we aren't on the same page.
If you open the page, under a heading "Optimized Implementation of Bubble Sort: " move down with arrow keys and you'll reach a tab of programming language's like C, C++. That is where I'm referencing.

I just tried to expand the button using Firefox and it didn't expand.  I don't know why it may be expanded in your case, but this is an accessibility problem if others have the same experience.

What browser are you using?  When I use Chrome, there is a button that is collapsed that says switch language.  I see no tabs.  I can't get the button to expand so I never see any way of changing language.

Try starting at the top of the page and moving using b to move by button.  Do you get to a switch language button and if it is expanded, can you contract it? 

As to your question, I'm not saying such a command doesn't exist, but I don't know of one.  There is a command to move the navigator object to the location of the mouse pointer, but that isn't what you want to do and often on web pages, when using the simulated mouse, I can't move the mouse pointer to the desired place on the web page to begin with.

Hi. On geeks for geeks website, they normally have tabs to select languages and examples will change based on the language selected. Passing through the tabs with arrows using NVDA will select each tab as you go. The problem is, the last language will always be the one selected. Using the tab button doesn't help. So I was thinking, is it possible to skip the tab frame with the review cursor and make the focus cursor the same with the review cursor. Like, moving three lines down with review cursor then making the focus cursor jump to where the review cursor is. An example could be found at https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/bubble-sort/ . Any other solution is welcomed. Currenctly, I just copy the code and review it in a text editor. Thank you.
