[WSG] Accessible popup help
Hi there, We have hidden divs (popup help) on a page that are shown either by onClick or onMouseOver. When the div is shown, Jaws will not read the contents, any ideas on how to get it to work without users having to disable JS? Also does anyone have any good examples of pop up help?

Hi Clare, Please see if this, or any part of it will be of help: http://dev.opera.com/articles/view/accessible-context-sensitive-help-with-u/ There are two formats described with working examples and code samples. Hope this may be of help. Med vennlig hilsen / Kind regards, Frank M.

RE: [WSG] Accessible popup help
Take a look at this method: http://websemantics.co.uk/resources/accessible_ajax_glossary/ An AJAX method which embeds the help into the page upon demand. Alternatively: http://direct.tesco.com/homepage/furniture.aspx Click on Spare parts or Customer services. With JS you get a pop-up, without you get an anchor link. Works with keyboard-only too.
