Commit b546e09

Q1: Should consumers be able to disable this auto-focus functionality?

Q2 Should Esc close the opened popup? Currently it doesn't.

Otherwise it's nothing big - for better keyboard UX I changed the order in which elements in popup are added to DOM - this shouldn't change anything since the close button has position: absolute;.

I also wanted to add functionality that re-focuses the previously focused element when popup is closed.
But it was getting messy in one scenario:

  • user opens a popup -> popup stores a reference to a previously focused element
  • user clicks on a different marker -> new popup is opened and after that the old popup is removed - this would result in a situation where the new popup would store a reference to a focusable element from the old popup (already bad but not too bad)
  • user clicks on a different marker -> same thing happens but since the new popup is added before the old one is removed we would first focus element in the new popup and then the popup which is on its way to DOM graveyard would jump in and it would try to re-focus the element from the very first popup which is long gone - so the third popup would lose focus and document.activeElement would be either null or document.body.

Both popup's removal (popup.js) and popup's appearing (marker.js) are driven by map's "click" event and I don't see an easy way how to ensure they happen in different order.

So I was thinking that the marker could pass a reference to its DOM element to the popup instance.
Then popup would focus it when it'll be closed - but only if popup was closed by the 'x' button - i.e. not by clicking on another marker.
It' an easy change and it would give users good keyboard UX. (I'm happy to add it to the PR if you think it's a good idea)

Commit 068d10d

I added a lot of details to the commit message but I don't know mapbox-gl-js that well so please think if there are some valid cases when map's container is scrolled (it's the div with id "mapid")

The solution in marker.js is good but while testing my changes I found
that the bug it tries to prevent happens also when popup content is
focused. It's just less likely to happen - user opens a popup
containing a focusable element, then zooms in so that it's outside
of the view and then tabs until the element in popup received focus.
So instead of duplicating the logic in popup I moved it to map.js.

Just as a small reminder about what that bug is about:
When user tab-focuses an element that's outside of the map view, browser
scrolls to make it visible which moves the canvas fully/partially
outside of the view.

Hi @watofundefined thanks for the contribution and for your patience. I think overall this seems pretty good. I noticed one situation where the focus seems to not work like I'd expect though.

  1. Open a popup by either clicking on the marker or by focusing it and pressing Enter.
  2. Click elsewhere on the map to close the popup.
  3. Repeat step 1 (can be the same marker or a different one).
  4. Note that there's no focused element in the popup.
  5. Press tab and notice that the second focusable element comes into focus.

It seems like this code will need to clear or reset the focus when a popup is closed.

I also wanted to add functionality that re-focuses the previously focused element when popup is closed.

I think this is unnecessary, at least in this PR.

Q1: Should consumers be able to disable this auto-focus functionality?

I'd say yes.

Q2 Should Esc close the opened popup? Currently it doesn't.

Let's leave this out of this PR.

Did something change that made it necessary to make this a Maybe type?

I should have annotated this - it's called without any arguments several times even within this file, so I couldn't resist fixing the type. I can revert it, to make the commit more focused!

There's no need to allocate this array every time this function is called. We could move it out of the function. You could also save it as a querySelector to avoid joining the array every time.

I moved it to the top-level scope - leaving the [item1, item2].join(', ') for better readability.
Let me know if that's fine with you - I can change it to whatever you think works better with the codebase.
I did try one long string, but it was around 190 characters which is just too much, and two strings on two lines didn't look right to me.

Hey @ryanhamley, no problem at all, thanks for feedback!

I've added a new popup option focusAfterOpen, defaulting to true.

As for the bug, I can replicate the behaviour you describe in both Firefox and Chrome.
It's a weird one though - it seems like it's just the browser's default outline style that's missing.
When I check document.activeElement in console, I can see that the element is focused correctly.
When I add a:focus {background-color: red;}, it's also applied correctly.

Here's what I tried (without luck):

  • setting focus on body when popup's closed, no luck there.
  • wrapping the initial focus() in setTimeout to see if it's a timing issue

Any ideas?

Cheers!

👋 @watofundefined apologies on the delay here. @ryanhamley asked me to give this a second set of eyes.

Weirdly, I can't reproduce the bug you and @ryanhamley ran into. If document.activeElement is still in focus correctly and its the browsers default handling of outline I personally think it's fine as is.

This overall looks great! Just had some small requests in the tests. Let's get this merged!

For variance, Mind changing this to a different focusable element? like a contenteditable region or a:href?

It seems contenteditable is not supported by jsdom so I used select. But while playing around with contenteditable I've noticed that the selector is wrong - hence the update in popup.js.

I tested it locally and it works as expected for these variants:

  • <div contenteditable>...</div> (focuses)
  • <div contenteditable="true">...</div> (focuses)
  • <div contenteditable="false">...</div> (doesn't focus)
