Hi,
I have a css Image gallery that uses an absolutely positioned span that initially is set to hidden to hold the larger image and using the psuedo class hover property to set the span to visible when the cursor is placed over the thumbnail image which I have set as a link so that it can access the hover property.
css code:
/* Css document for Image viewer */
.gallerycontainer{
position: relative;
/*Add a height attribute and set to largest image's height to prevent overlaying*/
height: 900px;
}
.thumbnail img{
border: 1px solid white;
margin: 0 5px 5px 0;
}
.thumbnail:hover{
background-color: transparent;
}
.thumbnail:hover img{
border: 1px solid #fff;
}
.thumbnail span{ /*CSS for enlarged image*/
position: absolute;
background-color: #ccc;
padding: 5px;
left: -1000px;
border: 1px dashed gray;
visibility: hidden;
color: black;
text-decoration: none;
}
.thumbnail span img{ /*CSS for enlarged image*/
border-width: 0;
padding: 2px;
}
.thumbnail:hover span{ /*CSS for enlarged image*/
visibility: visible;
top: 0;
left: 170px; /*position where enlarged image should offset horizontally */
z-index: 50;
}
p {
margin: 30px 50px 20px 50px;
padding: 0;
}
html:
CSS Image Viewer
@import "image_expander.css";

This works perfectly but I need to set something up so that it is accessible using the keyboard only to make the site AA Accessibility compliant.
Normally I would write a JavaScript function that was called from within the onkeypress property but this is not allowed by the client.
I have searched around for a solution with no success.
Can anyone help please?
Thanks
