I'm creating a filter functionality for a search results page that
must be accessible (WCAG 2.0 Level AA) and mobile friendly. I can see
there are accessibility considerations for jQuery
UI's autocomplete widget
, however I'm looking for the options list to always be visible,
much like jQuery mobile's filterable
and listview
widgets.
Can anyone either suggest an accessible extension of the jQuery UI
autocomplete that will achieve this?
I'd like to progressively enhance a select box (so that without
js this is the default) and I'd like the enhancement to allow the
user to select an option from an always visible, filterable list.
I've also looked at plugins like chosen.js and select2 and while the latter seems promising, I
don't see the ability to have options remain visible and not just
upon focus.
