I suspect http://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/FP-1219 is why you can't move focus into the Flash without the keyboard. The more usual problem in Firefox is not being able to move focus /out/ of the Flash object. Just spotted http://blogs.adobe.com/accessibility/2009/04/firefox_focus_and_actual_links_1.htmlbut this sounds as if it relies on the actionscript within the Flash itself being written in a particular way, and possibly on the javascript used to embed the flash into the HTML page. Interesting, hadn't seen that before. I'm not sure the technique is dependent on how you embed it, but it does look dependent on the JS DOM focus() method to move focus out of the Flash object. So I'd suggest the answer to your wondering is no. :( -- Benjamin Hawkes-Lewis Thanks. With a bit more tinkering (removing seamlesstabbing attribute and adding tabindex) I can get the focus into (but not out of) the Flash object.

[WSG] Software to read aloud web pages (targetted at literacy issues not vision issues)
Hi all, Someone's asked me about software that will read aloud from a web page, in a user friendly way, to be used by secondary students whose reading age is low prevents them being able to access the content. I've found a few examples - anyone have experience using any of these, or other software that you would recommend? http://www.browsealoud.com/page.asp?pg_id=80002 http://www.readplease.com/ http://www.guangmingsoft.net/speakaloud/help.htm http://www.nextup.com/TextAloud/ Cheers, Rebecca *** List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ***

Thanks everyone for your replys.

How can the designer predict what the user will want to do except in really trivial cases such as Google's home page? It can be utterly baffling for screen reader users because the sequence of elements is different in 'forms' mode (where tabindex is followed) and 'virtual cursor' mode (where it cannot be followed). I saw this recently in a user test on a site that sadly has to remain nameless because we are under an NDA (it only went live this year and they didn't fix it).

[WSG] Title attribute and screen readers
Hi all, I'm looking for up to date info on title attribute behaviour screen readers, especially where used on site global navigation. As an example, http://www.e.govt.nz uses fairly long title attributes for the main navigation links, and this repeats throughout the site (i.e., not just on the home page). For example, About e-govt in the left nav has: a href=http://www.e.govt.nz/about-egovt; span title=E-government enables people to use digital technology to find and use New Zealand government information and services.About e-govt/span /a Main thing I'm wondering is, with a screen reader, if reading out of title attribute text is enabled, are you forced to listen to the full title text each time it is encountered, or can you skip over it? In the above example, the title attribute is applied to a span nested inside the link, rather than to the link itself - would this make any difference? (Comparing this to phone customer support or online banking services - some force you to listen to the full spiel about each option before you can do anything, others don't - they allow you to activate your menu choice without listening to the full explanatory message.) Or are most screen reader users not using title attribute text - some time ago there was an article published suggesting most had it disabled... Would appreciate any information anyone might have on how this works!

[WSG] Screen reader friendly show/hide dhtml
Hi all, I've got a couple of questions regarding DHTML and how to ensure content is accessible usable via screen reader. Say you have a web page with a link to Subscribe to updates - when the user hovers on the link, a form would be displayed below (standard dhtml show/hide). The form would be in the HTML source on page load, hidden using CSS. My questions on this are: 1. If we displayed the content on focus as well as on hover, would this make it screen reader usable? 2. Alternatively, we could make clicking on the link (rather than, or as well as, on focus) display the content and take you to it (ie use an anchor on the page). 2. Does reading out the link (for screen readers) give it focus? 3. If we had (at top of page, with the skip link) a facility to turn off the show/hide functionality, (using a cookie) would this be useful? If anyone has comments, suggestions etc they could pass on to me about this, it would be greatly appreciated:) Regards, Rebecca Cox SIGNIFY LIMITED :: the logic behind ph: +64 4 803-3211 | fax: +64 4 803-3241 http://www.signify.co.nz P.O.

You could even fine tune this so that if some users were able to edit a limited subset of the fields, they would only be only shown the disabled input for those they would be able to edit.

But sometimes, I think when you use position: absolute; bottom 0; to place your footer, if there's (for example) images with no height declared, or DHTML which adds an element into the page after onload, these heights don't get accounted for when the browser goes where is the bottom of this page to place the footer Other browsers eg Safari, Firefox don't have this issue;( If all else fails possibly try a bit of javascript to check / recalculate heights of things.
