Thank you both so much. I never even considered that it would have anything to do with groups mode. So, I switched to DOM mode and then voiceover read the expanded text. It worked. :) I had not used DOM mode for anything before. It never occurred that DOM mode would allow me to access those things. Strangely voiceover still read the "expanded text" after I switched back to groups mode.
Since you both taught me this little trick, I went to the keyboard commander to set up the toggle between groups and Dom modes. I'm just so glad to know of this little trick as I have encountered this issue before on other web sites and now I have hope that I can try toggleing the mode to get voiceover to read the text that seems to expand off of a link. :) Thanks, Christina On Sep 22, 2009, at 2:44 AM, Krister Ekstrom wrote: > > > 22 sep 2009 kl. 04.47 skrev Justin Harford: > >> >> Do you use groups mode?
