3.2.3
Navigational mechanisms that are repeated on multiple Web pages within a set of Web pages occur in the same relative order each time they are repeated, unless a change is initiated by the user.
If a website is more than one page.
Browse through each set of web pages to identify recurring navigational features, but only check on the pages that are in scope for your testing.
Examples of recurring navigational features include things like:
- main and sub navigation
- breadcrumbs
- search box
Check if recurring navigational features are in the same relative order. You can check this in the code by using the same tools as under 1.3.2 Meaningful Sequence.
Check the order of components as well as of individual granular items within them.
When checking recurring navigational features, keep in mind:
- their position isn't relevant for this check
- there can be missing or extra items as long as the recurring items are in the same order as before
- they don't need to be on all pages
This Success Criterion does not apply if the order can be changed by the user, for example with settings on the website or assistive technologies.
- Recurring navigational features should look the same and be in the same location
- There should be no items missing from page to page
- Navigational features should be on most pages
- Consider not failing homepages because users are used to them being so different
