Keyboard Navigation

The Blazor Uploader component includes complete ARIA support for operation with screen readers and other assistive technologies. Focus moves predictably through interactive elements such as the browse button, file list items, and action buttons (remove, retry, and clear). Status updates (for example, upload progress and error messages) are exposed to assistive technologies.

The following are the standard keys that work in the Uploader component:

 Windows Mac   Actions 
 Tab Tab  Moves focus to the next focusable element.
 Shift + Tab + Tab  Moves focus to the previous focusable element.
 Enter Enter  Triggers the action associated with the focused button element.
 Esc Esc  Closes the file selection dialog. If a file drop is in progress, it cancels the upload.
