Description

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Open the Keyboard Accessibility Demo
  2. With JAWS running, move focus to the star ranking widget
  3. Notice that JAWS announces to use the up/down arrows. However, only the right/left arrows work for navigating between the star rankings.

This is likely because the star ranking is marked up as a set of radio buttons, but layed out horizontally.
