Hi Genny, I don't know what might be different in OSX10.5, but here are some things you can try. This is all totally guesswork though.
I haven't seen this on google, but I have experienced other situations where things that should have been clickable were not, and this trick helps sometimes. While focused on the heading, try interacting with it. Since the link element is inside the header element, this older voiceover may need to interact with the heading to see it. If that does not work, you could try running a nightly build of webkit. This will include the newer accessibility fixes that made it into the version of safari that came with OSX 10.6 and then some. Since it's a development version, there's always a chance of instability but the recent builds work fine for me. If it's a safari problem, this will solve it. If it's something wrong with the older voiceover itself then it won't help. The address for the nightly webkit builds is http://nightly.webkit.org Hope you get this working.

While I am familiar with how to activate a link, the problem appears to be that Safari simply doesn't seem to recognize the area I need to activate as a link. Therefore, using VO+space does nothing. I don't know, seeing as how not many people are familiar with this particular issue, I am beginning to wonder if it could have anything to do with the version of OS I am running. This machine has OS 10.56, which is certainly not the latest and greatest. Jenny -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.
