OK, this is weird. I can use the page you used with JAWS to. However, if I go to local.google.co.uk I can't. Not with IE anyway, with Firefox it's fine. Very strange.

I'd never come across Google Local before so I took a look both at the URL James gave and then went to www.googlelocal.com I see there an edit box quite a bit further down the screen and it works in the normal way with JAWS 7. I searched for "Restaurants in Reading" and appeared to get what I wanted. I don't understand how this is different from what used to happen . . .. Could someone explain, please? -- Carol carol.pearson@xxxxxxxxxxxx -----Original Message----- From: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Peter Logue Sent: Saturday, February 04, 2006 1:34 AM To: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [access-uk] Re: Google Local now inaccessible! You're not wrong. Its totally inaccessible. There is an edit field there where normally you would type your search criteria. There's also a search button. But Jaws only wraps from top to bottom with perhaps a few links in between. Peter From beautiful Helensburgh on the Firth of Clyde.

I am hoping beyond hope that I am wrong on this one. I am really quite angry and my blood is boiling. Google Local, a service that I loved and used often, now appears to be inaccessible. I've tried several ways into it but there is no longer an accessible search box on the page. Say hello to dragging maps. Please, someone else try it and tell me I'm wrong. http://www.google.co.uk/lochp?hl=en much love ...Damon ** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** and in the Subject line type ** unsubscribe ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the ** immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] ** or send a message, to ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq -- No virus found in this incoming message.
