What I have encountered is Dropbox when I need to sign in. I can navigate that dialog. Voiceover does not echo when I type in my email address or password. Strangely, I can VO left then right again and VO will speak what I enter. But VO is no good if I need to edit the information.

Ok,
I seem to be running into this more and more on various websites of late: edit 
boxes that won’t accept input and won’t provide feedback to the screen reader. 
The latest, interestingly enough, is on google.com and their account 
verification dialog. I had to recover an email account today, but was unable to 
complete the process because the edit box to input the verification code would 
not accept any input. In fact, It failed to do so on 3 separate browsers 
(Firefox, safari and chrome). I even disabled the screen reader and sought help 
from one of the room mates. He tried to input the code in the assigned edit box 
and it still wouldn’t accept input.

Anyone have any clues how to get around this?

Also, I dropped an email into the google accessibility group with complete 
details of the problem. Unknown if any of the google devs even read it and 
there appears to be no real way to contact google otherwise. Some suggestions 
on that also welcome.

thanks.

Eric
