alright, well since I test a lot of things, I'll get it today or tomorrow and
give it a spin
as to visual studios, my grab bag site has a number of items, including some
advanced scripts for jaws 7 and up that make working with visual studios fairly
easy, and the non visual development.org site:
www.nonvisualdevelopment.org
has help for VS users.
and another fellow out here is good with visual web designer, so help is
available, smile.

inthane,
The first application is an XML editor.
As for the application servers, I've been told I can use visual studio if I
want but not too sure how accessible that is either.
I always fight for accessibility but I'm the first blind student on this
course so you can imagine how much I've had to fight for since my 1st year.
Thanks for your encouragement as I was just about giving up on the fight. Seems
the whole department remains in a continuous loop sometimes but thankfully the
additional learning needs department is very supportive so I've kind of managed.
I'll book a meeting with the lecturer and et back to you later today.
Regards,
LU

Hi,
I don't have the answers to your current questions, but having done a lot
of college courses, (I was one light semester away from an A S degree), always
keep in mind that though you should always try to use the required software,
it's up to the school and instructors to make the class accessible to you!, not
the other way around.
what is the use of that first application?
and, several of those second applications seem to be types of Linux based
server software's, if so, there are several others than those you mentioned
that are accessible, and a few with speech applications built into the kernel.
if I am right, let us know and I or one of the others can guide you to them
remember, be nice, but be firm with instructors, and don't be afraid to
solicit aid from the Disabled Students Center if you have one, and/or the dean
of students and the Dean of facility if you need to.

Hello,
I am in my final year at university and I am taking a development
course. I have a few questions as I have been instructed to download the
following application by the course tutor;
- Altova XML Spy editor
My questions are;
- Is this program accessible with JFW 9?
- Where can I get a user guide?
- Is there a more accessible alternative?
Also I have been told to download one of the following application
servers;
a.. Resin
a.. Tomcat
a.. Sun Application Server
a..
a.. Cape Clear 6
a.. Systinet WASP
a.. BEA WebLogic
a..
a.. IBM WebSphere.
My questions are basically the same as above;
- What is an application server?
- Which of the above is the most accessible?
- Which of the above is easiest to use?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
LU
