Component API

Pagination is made up of the following elements:

Root

  • This element is automatically appended to the document body, ensuring that this element always properly overlays page contents when opened.

  • aria-label

    Default: 'Breadcrumb'

    Provide a label that describes the type of navigation provided in the nav element.

List

  • <ul>

    Use an <ul> for Pagination Lists. This allows assistive technology to enumerate the items in the pagination and allows shortcuts between list items.

List Items

  • <li>

    Use an <li> for Pagination List Items. This allows assistive technology to enumerate the items in the pagination and allows shortcuts between list items.

  • aria-label

    Default: 'ellipsis indicating non-visible pages'

    When a Pagination List Item contains an Ellipsis, use an aria-label to describe to assistive technology the meaning of the ellipsis item.

  • <a> or <span>

    Use an <a> element when Pagination List Items are clickable. Every item, except Ellipsis elements, should use an <a> element.

    Use a <span> element for Ellipsis elements.

  • aria-current="page"

    Allows screen readers to communicate that the element represents a link to the current page.

    Only use the aria-current attribute on the link element describing the current page.
