Dear all:

For accessibility reason, our site must work when users use only keyboard without mouse.....
The suckerfish dropdown menu can't work when users use the 'tab' key on keyboard.......
We can only see the links, but no dropdown menu titles......

Changing title, status and priority

Any issue that prevent a certain set of users from accessing functionality is a critical bug. There are many users who navigate the web with keyboard alone, as they do not have use of a pointing device. Some of these users use screen-readers, others do not.

Can you send me a website as example of a suckerfish menu doing as you wish? I have no idea how to accomplish that.

Suckerfish menus can be made keyboard accessible using the make accessible javascript. It works great! Go to http://carroll.org.uk/sandbox/suckerfish/bones2.html
