RE: mouse overs with jaws

I still think the idea of asking the site developer to unplug his mouse
and try moving around his site using the tab and enter keys is a great
idea.  It might give him some idea of what we mean when we say a site is
not very accessible.
 
Cheers

I don't know, but this was the advice the Jaws providers gave and they
are willing to assist in adding the title tags.

Good evening,

 

Just wondering how adding a title tag to an inaccessible popup menu will
fix anything?  Will the tag say "Hey, this menu is inaccessible, don't
try to use it if you're blind."?

 

Just curious

                Hi All

 

We are going to approach the web developer to change/improve the sight.

 

One way apparently would be to add title tags when a mouse over leads to
a popup menu (which on the problem site, then is not labled and thus
cannot be detected by Jaws).
