The Reading Order overlay shows the sequential flow of HTML elements on the web page. This information helps you determine whether the content that is presented to the customer in an order that is easy to understand and navigate.

Assistive technologies that read content to the user can present the HTML elements in sequential order as they appear in the HTML.

A tab order is the order in which the input fields are given focus. Unless a specified tab order is defined, the tab order follows the same sequential flow as the reading order.
