[jaws-uk] Re: adobe flash

Adobe Flash Player is a plugin for Flash web content and should in
theory be safe to download without interfering with JAWS. It officially
supports JAWS as a screen reader when JAWS is used with Internet
Explorer. But Flash developers must use the accessibility features of
Flash for this to work properly. An example of accessible Flash content
of this sort can be found at http://www.jkrowling.com .

Adobe could just as easily support Flash accessibility with Firefox too,
but have so far failed to do so, as discussed recently on Mozilla's
dev-accessibility mailing list:
