In a webpage here, I just tested both of the following using jaws12, in IE9, 
and neither of them displayed as such:
<input type="button" value="should be hidden" style="visibility: hidden;" /><br 
/>
<input type="button" value="should be none displaying" style="display: none;" 
/><br />

  There are two CSS properties that you might want to test.


  display: none;


  and


  visibility: hidden;


  I would be interested in these results as well, and if possible I'd like to 
know the build version of JAWS, found on the About dialog of JAWS.


  Thanks,

    Hi,
    Someone I was talking with told me that JAWS 11 honored the CSS 
display:hidden attribute, but JAWS 12 doesn't. I don't have JAWS 12 to test 
with. Can anyone confirm or whatever the opposite of confirm is?

    Thanks.
