Suzy:

Just as I explained. The focus has to be set to the body of the text and not to 
the new window.

The folks at my desk said what I had entered got displayed on the page but JAWS 
didn't say anything after I hit the submit button.

Hi Suzie,
When you say that it didn't get displayed, are you saying that you were reading 
along and didn't run into the new text, or that JAWS did not speak the new 
information automatically. Your answer might matter.

Thanks.

Jim

Subject: [program-java] AJAXaccessibility

Hi Listers,

I am sending this to both the programming list and the java list. I have just 
looked at a web site written in AJAX. One of the problems I saw was that when 
it displayed something on the page it did not get spoken by JAWS. I don't know 
anything about AJAX, but the man showing me the application said it does not 
refresh the page. I don't see how it can ever work. Does anyone have any 
thoughts to share on this subject?
