Abstract
Methods and systems are disclosed for enabling item selection in a widget. An example method comprises receiving at an electronic device, from a server, code instructing the electronic device to display a widget having a grid comprising one or more cells configured for point-and-click selection. The method further comprises displaying the grid in accordance with the received code and sending information associated with a currently selected cell to an assistive system on the electronic device. The method further comprises configuring the electronic device for keystroke operation of the widget. The method further comprises identifying a non-entry keystroke, and in response, determining a new cell associated with the grid, selecting the new cell, and sending information associated with the new cell to the assistive system for output to the user. The method further comprises identifying an entry keystroke and, responsive thereto, sending information associated with the new cell to the server.
