Good afternoon Nermin,
I think we need to clarify a few things here
1. Was this site working for your friend in the past?
2. When you say Java, do you really mean Java, or may you be referring to
Javascript?
3. Java applets are completely inaccessible to screen-readers. So, if it is
truely Java and your friend hasn't used the site in the past then she likely
will not be able to use the site now.
4. The only exception to the accessibility of Java applets is if they are
used as a launchpad for an actual Java application using the swt or swing UI
components.
HTH,
Everett

Subject: Java and the Access Bridge?
Hi all,
a friend has very, very serious issues with Java and a particular website.
When she updated Java Runtime, and the Access Bridge 2.01, nothing would
read in firefox, not even the Google website.
The page she tries to log onto uses Java to display certain elements, to
which she vitally needs access.
What can she do to get her Firefox back on track, plus to read the info on
the page.
As this is confidential stuff, I do not have access to the sensitive areas
and am therefore unable to reproduce anything on my machine.
Does she maybe need an earlier version of Access Bridge, or doesn't that
make any difference?
Her JAWS is 8.0, and Win xP in Spanish.
FireFox is up-to-date.
Any helpful answer is greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Nermin
