It becomes a problem when you get questions longer than "Your age?" for
instance.
Our particular issue surrounds a question that read something like "If
you answered no to the above question, then ..."
WE're trying to think of editorial solutions around this but it seems
bound up in the access issues.

How about not having very very long questions?

Wondering if anyone could help me on the accessibility
of forms. I've looked at the RNIB's access centre website but it's not
very clear.
WE're putting together a survey on the Ouch website at
the moment.
Our screenreader access issue goes like this:
1: you land on the question
2: you arrow down thru the options but, before every
option the question is read out again.
When the question is very very long, this causes issues.
Is there a way of getting to the question on the survey,
hearing the question only once and then arrowing thru the radio button
option but only hearing the option not the question and option every
time you arrow down?
Any thoughts appreciated.
