Hi David, Yup, as a user experience NVDA feels a little clunky at times, but I'd still recommend testing with that on Windows. My thinking is that NVDA currently has the least amount of quirks in terms of how it interprets HTML, so although it's a bit raw, a page that is easy for you to use with both NVDA and VoiceOver shouldn't throw up any surprises no matter what people are using.
For the record, your "JAWS is much nicer, it approaches VoiceOver in usability" comment gave me a good laugh. Talk like that would get you the cyber equivalent of a standing ovation from some groups of blind folks, and thrown to the lions by others. Fortunately, this list is pretty neutral. Good luck, and if there's anything specific you get stuck on accessibility-wise just shout. Scott On 1/28/11, David Rose <drokaudysseygam...@ddrose.com> wrote: > Thanks for the advice, everyone!
