No problems, Ray. I should've added that I didn't try all of the sites which I suggested to know if they're all equally easy to use. Another site that I actually tried in the past was Send Space at


http://sendspace.com/

and I found it to be pretty straightforward to use.

Cheers,
Amro

Thanks Amro for the suggestions.  Clearly there has to be some
training or instruction of the people needing to share files, but
obviously some file sharing systems are easier to use than others.

YouSendIt, as George has indicated, shouldn't present a problem to
anyone who knows how to use their screen reader.  With Window-Eyes I
can find the transfer php link in the links list, or do a search for
'download', and route the mouse to that - bit convoluted, but just
another way.

So, one of those situations where a nice accessible page is good;  but
propper instruction better still.

Cheers,

Sorry, I know we've been here before, but anyone here have
suggestions
for unproblematic free up-load/download services?

Maybe the download side is of particular interest.  This arrises
because I've sent a file to YouSendIt but the recipient just cannot
hack finding the link to download the file (which I know is there).
Think he's using HAL Supernova, which can be a problem in more than
one way, not least because I don't know that screen reader at all
well.

So, any suggestions?  Even paid for file sharing could be useful to
know about too as a local organisation might end up paying for this.

Thanks.
