Michael,
I am sorry that no one knows how to make this work or whom we have to talk
to change these sorts of things.
It just seams flat wrong when it could be easy enough to have the stupid
calendar for those who want and or need it and have the box editable. It
works that way in our accounting program. If you don't know what date you
want you push the look up button and then the mouse can click on it or other
wise you can just type the date. No harm no fowl.
I even just went to see if I could search for the date I wanted after I
activated the calendar and it didn't work that way either. The mouse
couldn't find it, or at least it was not clickable that way.
You just gotta click on it to do it.
I wish there was an alternative way to get around this.
You and I can't be the only ones who have this problem.
Shannon

Shannon. You are one of few people on this list who tried to provide an
answer. My Citibank Citgo card has a very similar issue with that dad
blamed pop up or hollowed out calendar. Sighted people tell me there's a
little calendar that pops up, and the Wal-Mart phone reps tell me the very
same thing. Little good that does me in this situation. I used to be
able
to change the edit box, and when it came to the Citgo card account, I used
to be able to click on the next month and the calendar would change for
the
next month. Now, with things as they are on the Walmart.com/creditlogin
site and the Citgo card site, I have to have sighted help. I wish there
was
a way around this too. Thanks. At least you provided an answer.
Mike M.

Michael,
I don't know how to fix the problem but I think I know what is happening
here.
I have the same issue with the citi cards website.
On the Citi cards website make a payment website it sounds like what you
have on the Wal-Mart site.
When you get to that read only date box and there is the click here to
change part, when you clicked on that a little calendar popped up. It is
sort of like an over lay on the screen over top of the existing text. The
idea here is that you use the mouse to click on the date you want to
change
it to. once a date is clicked on it populates the read only box.
Here in lies the problem. It is very difficult to find this calendar. I
have
a little sight so that is why I can tell you what is happening here. I can
sort of see this pretty hollow looking grid pop up and getting the mouse
over to it the mouse will read the text under it and if you actually get
the
mouse on a number it will speak that number. Once I hit and miss a few
times
to find the number of the day I want and click I will get the populated
date
I want.
I don't know what the trick is to doing this other than what I am doing. I
don't know if this is a accessibility error on the web design or just one
of
those things we have to learn to get around.
I do wish that it was an edit box and I could type in the date.
not much help here but this is just my observations.
If there is a better way to handle it I would love to hear it too.
Shannon

Hi. I know I have mentioned this problem making a payment to
walmart.com/creditlogin and Window-eyes 7.5.01 before. None of the
suggestions I tried to make a payment have worked. Here are the steps
and issues I am having.
I log on to www.walmart.com/creditlogin. I enter my user name and tab
to the sign in button which is a picture link. Then I land in the
area where I enter my password. I open the list of links with
insert-l and hit m for make a payment. I down arrow to the section of
radio buttons. I select the one that says other amount and tab to the
edit box and enter the amount.
The problem I encounter whether I enter the amount or not is a read
only edit box which is the payment due date. If I use the numbpad and
right arrow past the read only edit box, I come upon a leftwards arrow
and to the right of that are the words click here to change the
payment date. If I left click on the leftwards arrow or the letter c
on click here to change the payment date, I am merely taken back to
the payment page. Using the context menu key on either icon gives me
no useful options.
Would there be any way to use the remote assistant feature without
compromising confidential information? Or, for that matter, does
anybody have an idea as to how to change the read only edit box to
let's say today's date or a future date? Thanks.
Mike M.
