From: "Paul Novitski" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Sorry, but aren't these apples & oranges? The triggering event is
one thing, the disappearing technique another. What I'm reading (or
perhaps misreading) is that even screen readers that respond to the
onclick method might not present text that's previously been hidden
with {display: none}.
Not having a screen reader to test on, I'd appreciate hearing from
someone who does:
When the styling for a block of text is changed from {display: none}
to {display: block} or {display: inline}, does your reader begin
reading it immediately? Or does it simply add that text into the
body of the page for eventual reading?
I have a copy of JAWS 5.1 on a system. I'll try to check it out. If
you're right, it's a good point. Scripts that rely on CSS rules should
be easy to adapt. If you find anything out before I do, please post or
fire me a line offlist.
Thanks.
