Re: Navigating to mages o webpages

[Catherine Turner]

Hi,

Thanks for the suggestion, I'll have a look at that.  The interesting
thing is, using a different screenreader I can pick up on the images.
I realise this list is for discussing Mac which is why I didm't
mention that in the first place.  It just made me wonder whether there
was some other way of getting VO to pick up on the images.

Thanks,
Catherine

Hi Sarah,

You're correct.  The Weather Underground Braille page URL is:
http://braille.wunderground.com/
The main Weather Underground page URL is:
http://www.wunderground.com/

I just prefer using the mobile version of their web pages.

Cheers,

Esther

 Hi,
 
 I'm trying to use the Met Office's website to look at a weather
 forecast for my area.  There are images for each day, I know this
 because a sighted person has confirmed it, but even though in
 Voiceover Utility I have navigate images set to always, according to
 Voiceover there is only one image on the page which is the
 advertisement.  Is there anything I can do to make VO recognise that
 there are these images?
 
 Thanks,

Hey thanks for that. I was close. lol! Did they not have a site that started

is pretty nifty. Now if only they had an app. lol!

Use the Weather Underground Page instead [was Re: Navigating to mages o webpages]

[Esther]

Hi Catherine and Sarah,

I use the weather underground mobile site, which has the URL:
http://m.wund.com/
They even have a mobile site that is optimized for the iPhone, that I use on my 
iPhone:
http://i.wund.com/

Type in your city or postal code into the text box and then press return. You 
can bookmark this page.  On the iPhone I double tap the "Go" button in the 
bottom right corner of the virtual keyboard. Then, once you have the forecast 
page for your city, save it to your home screen by double tapping the Safari 
"Utilities" button at the bottom of your screen, just above the home button.  
Double tap the "Add to Home Screen" button, and you'll be able to access the 
weather report for your city, both current and forecast.

HTH.  Cheers,

Esther

Try the weather underground site. the coder probably of your site  did not code 
the images correctly. I'd give you the link but I'm in the middle of a24 hour 
black out of all social circles including twitter and facebook. I think it's 
http://weatherunderground.com if not google "weather underground"

The site is very easy to navigate and use.

Take care.

Hi,

I'm trying to use the Met Office's website to look at a weather
forecast for my area.  There are images for each day, I know this
because a sighted person has confirmed it, but even though in
Voiceover Utility I have navigate images set to always, according to
Voiceover there is only one image on the page which is the
advertisement.  Is there anything I can do to make VO recognise that
there are these images?
