Hi Chris,
If you've used the *lovely* native FB IOS App, you'll be familiar with some of the shortcomings
of the mobile site when accessed thru Safari on the Mac. sometimes you can "like" a
post, sometimes not. Sometimes you can comment, sometimes not. Sometimes notifications show up,
sometimes not. Sometimes the screen refreshes properly, sometimes not. Sometimes the cursor
maintains focus in a text entry field, sometimes not. If I were an FB addict, I'd probably have
jumped out a window by now.<growl>. I've never tried FB on Windows, with or without a
screen reader, so I can't personally compare the experience there.
Cheers,
Bryan

Thanks Bryan. I plan to use m.facebook.com and I have heard that it is
displayed differently, possibly even inaccessible, on a mac. Is this really
true? I'm sure I could work it out, but anyway, please advise. Thanks!

Hi Chris,
To expand a bit on Sarah's note, you can implement her Facebook / IE8
suggestion by doing the following:
1. when you're in Safari go to Safari Preferences by pressing Command+comma.
2. In Safari Preferences interact with the toolbar, select the"Advanced" button, stop interacting
with the toolbar, navigate to the item labeled, "Show Develop Menu in Menu Bar," and make sure this
checkbox is checked. This will add a menu item labeled "Develop" into the menu for both Safari and
Webkit.
3. To set Safari to identify itself as Internet Explorer 8, go to the Develop
menu / User Agent / and select Internet Explorer 8.
Another option you're probably already aware of is the feature-limited but friendlier
"mobile" version of FB available at m.facebook.com
HTH,
Bryan

works.
