I'm sure the screen reader manufacturers will have to take a look at it. Who knows, maybe it will become accessible in a few months or most likely, years. Remember, Firefox wasn't accessible at the beginning either. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Gerald Levy" <bwaylimited@xxxxxxxxxxx>

I also tried installing Google Chrome with no success.  Maybe Google

stick to search engines and leave the browser field to Microsoft and
