G'day,

 

According to JAWS 12  beta 3 that page you mentioned has 2464 links and
there is a slight lag when doing a ins+f7 command to bring up the link list
dialog box though no were near as bad as the Java docs page.  If I recall
the Java docs page has 4300+ links which seems to be the real issue.

 

Perhaps this comes down to how the screen reader is parsing the page in it's
OSM?

 

Cheers.

AB

Hi,

Here's another page that has a lot of links that works with  JAWS 11, so I
wonder if it is indeed JAWS. How many links does the Java one have?
http://docs.python.org/contents.html

G'day,

 

You make a valid point true enough that's for sure, ala alternatives, etc!

 

I did do a test though with a page hosted local via IIS with 5--- links and
encountered the same issues which begs the question what else is out on the
web with similar structure that causes the same behaviour?

 

I guess the bottom line is that these situations do exist and a screen
reader such as JAWS (since version 10+) seem to have issues with regards
presenting the relevant information in a time acceptable manner, not
withstanding any other PC resource related issues, i.e., RAM, etc.

 

Is it therefore a question for the content producers or the assistive
technology vendors such as FS to deal with?

 

Cheers.

Hi,

You can always view the packages page, which has way less links, then drill
down to the class of interest that way.

Hi Listers,

 

This came out first on the programming blind list and I thought I would
bring it to everyone's attention.

 

Going to the API link with Jaws 10 the F7 works fine with Jaws 10, but not
later versions.
