Message I'd concur with that. If you want to be fully accessible, simplify the 
questions to assist persons with a learning difficulty.

  How about not having very very long questions?

    Wondering if anyone could help me on the accessibility of forms. I've 
looked at the RNIB's access centre website but it's not very clear. 

    WE're putting together a survey on the Ouch website at the moment. 

    Our screenreader access issue goes like this: 

    1: you land on the question 

    2: you arrow down thru the options but, before every option the question is 
read out again. 



    When the question is very very long, this causes issues. 



    Is there a way of getting to the question on the survey, hearing the 
question only once and then arrowing thru the radio button option but only 
hearing the option not the question and option every time you arrow down? 



    Any thoughts appreciated.
