Hi Shan, You will need to check whether standard controls have been used in the Java application. However, installing the access bridge does no harm so install it and try it. Note: if custom controls have been used, then the developers should have implemented the accessibility API.

Check out the JAWS help topic "Java" for some more info. Good Luck!

Jaws of course doesn't see anything. it considers the screen of the application to be a graphic. I started reading up on Java access bridge and was wondering if anyone else has installed it and did yo encounter any problems. In my reading it sounds like the java developers have to have used the various access classes otherwise the java access bridge will not work. Is there anyway to establish if the access bridge will work before installing it? anything to look at directly from the point of view of the java applet?
