Re: Tabular content and Voiceover
Hi, You can do it in safari for sure. Presumably you can do it in tables 9 as well or the spreadsheet application that comes with open office, numbers is it? I forget. I think the last I read tables weren't functioning in text edit, but most other places they should be pretty workable. Best, erik burggraaf A+ sertified technician and user support consultant.

Re: Tabular content and Voiceover
Hi. Table navigation works fine with Safari if you switch to group mode. Voiceover doesn't say row 1, row 2 etc, but you can go up, down, left and right like in all other tables.

Re: Tabular content and Voiceover
Hi, I think tables are somehow accessible with Pages 09, but I'm not sure. In any case I have found tables in Ms Word documents to be reasonably understandable in Textedit. The thing is that you need to know that you are in a table, but once you know it, it's doable. What happens is that if you have the insertion cursor at the beginning of the line, VO will read you the first column of the table as you go down. If you know there is an other column next to it, you just arrow through the text of the first column on one of the rows, and if you keep going to the right you will be able to read the text on the next column. If you just leave the cursor there and go up and down, VO will read the 2nd column for you. I don't know if this is understandable at all, but if you must get something out of a table, it's definitely not impossible. Ignasi On Jun 8, 2009, at 4:54 AM, E.J.
