Good evening Nermin,

It is really to bad, but she probably cannot get access to this applet.

Applets are developed, and recognized by web-browsers in a way that they cannot be accessed by assistive technology. I could give you the technical reasons, but the long and short of it is Java applets are inaccessible.

To my knowledge, the only way to make an accessible applet type of thing is to use the applet as only a launchpad for a full Java application (that would open in a different window).

Sorry that I couldn't be more help,
Everett

Hi again,

now I have more info regarding the site.
After logging in, there is a window that opens, with a kind of Java applet. It contains callendar and other buttons, and at the end there is Java V applet. She downgraded from Runtime Environment 10 to I think 7, no access bridge installed, and now all other websites seem to work OK again.
The only thing that doesn't work is this Java applet.
Some parts do read well, but the callendar and tasks are presented in a strange way, some of the items not appearing at all.

Any Ideas?
Regards and thanks a lot,
Nermin
