Re: allegiant air website not accessible with vo and safari
Hi Mike, My problem was that I couldn't even get to the dates. I went back there and tried pressing vo space, the 5 on the number pad, up and down arrows in quick nav and the enter kay on that departure date link. After each of those, I looked around with the number pad and quick nav arrows for anything resembling dates. No go. Don't know what I'm not doing, but since Colin managed, it seems like I ought to be able to do that too.

I was also in dom mode, that's what I always use, haven't really found that group mode makes things faster or easier, that's a personal preference of course.

Re: allegiant air website not accessible with vo and safari
Hi Mary, this is indeed a problem site, I do have a wrk around though. Move your voice over cursor to the date you want, and press control option command f5 to place the mouse on the item. Now press control option shift space to do a mouse click, this calendar seems to require actual mouse clicks to work, it's bad design on their part though.

Re: allegiant air website not accessible with vo and safari
Colin, Were you in dom or group mode? That's the only thing I didn't think of, trying the other mode. I was in dom mode. I had no problems with the pop up buttons to select my city. But the calendar fields certainly didn't appear for me as you described.
