The Kendo UI for jQuery FloatingActionButton component is [WCAG 2.1 AAA](https://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG21/) and [Section 508](http://www.section508.gov/) compliant. The component also follows the [WAI-ARIA best practices](https://www.w3.org/WAI/ARIA/apg/) for implementing the keyboard navigation for its component role, and is tested against the popular screen readers.
## Wai-Aria
The FloatingActionButton features two distinct modes of operation: button only and button with menu.
### Button only mode
| Selector | Attribute | Usage |
| -------- | --------- | ----- |
| .k-fab | `role=button` or `nodeName=button` | Or omitted if `<button>` DOM element is used. |
| | `aria-label` | The attribute must be present when no text is initially visible on the button. |
| | `aria-disabled=true` | Rendered only when the button is disabled and the `disabled` attribute could not be used (applicable for `<button>` or `<input type="button">` elements). |
### Button with Menu mode
In this mode the FloatingActionButton must implement the specification for the **DropDownButton** component.
