tabindex and accessibility

Hi,

The only way to remove the tab indexes is by editing the core plugin files. Please note, by removing those tab indexes the magnifier icon will not be selectable – those explicit tab indexes were used to make it more accessible.

The file you need to edit is wp-content/plugins/ajax-search-pro/includes/views/asp.shortcode.probox.php lines 38 and 79. If you simply remove those attributes, it will resolve the issue.

I’m afraid no override is possible for this file. You could use a custom script to remove all tabindexes though – although I am not exactly sure if that resolves it:

add_action('wp_footer', 'wp_footer_asp_custom_remove_tabindex', 9999);
function wp_footer_asp_custom_remove_tabindex() {
	?>
	<script>
	(function($){
		$('*[tabindex]').removeAttr('tabindex');
		setTimeout(function(){
			$('*[tabindex]').removeAttr('tabindex');
		}, 1000);
	})(jQuery);
	</script>
	<?php
}
