Christopher,

        In theory the onClick should work, even without a mouse. If it
doesn't, then use an onKeypress in addition to the onClick. That's the
keyboard equivalent of the mouse event handler.

        If you're completely stuck, send me your code off list and I'll
happily take a look.

Regards,
L=E9onie.

Hi all,
As part of my course I had to do an HTML page that is supposed to ask =
the
user to enter the speed of their CD/DVD-ROM drive and it then shows them =
the
actual speed. However, because it requires Onclick both JAWS and =
Window-Eyes
cannot activate the button. How can I make Onclicks work with screen
readers?
If you want the web page in question, please write to mee off list and =
I'll
gladly send it to you for you to look at.
Thanks, and I look forward to hearing from you.
P.S. I'd like to thank everybody for helping me out with the command =
prompt
query. JAWS read the box beautifully, apart from a few occasions,
particularly in the "edit" programme, whereby it either read part of the
screen or it didn't read anything, plus it read some garbled characters.
I really appreciated your help.
