Hi! As part of our web site accessibility audits an issue was raised with a form dropdown. Apparently it needs to be ‘keyboard accessible’ with a WCAG code of e (2.1.1).  
I do not know how to do this. Those I have asked suggest some programming may be required, which is beyond me, and of course I can’t change core files. So… anyone have a way to achieve this? Please and thank you.

Hi Carl. We have made improvements to Gravity Forms in version 2.5, which is in beta now, related to WCAG 2.1 compliance. I do not have a workaround for you in the current version, but I encourage you to take a look at the 2.5 beta demo site we have set up, to see if the new version better handles compliance for this element in your form.
