Jackie,

Thank you. I updated my Firefox and Flash updates and was able to get into my Kaplan account without a problem. I am afraid to, and will probably not try using IE on their web site again. I will stick with Firefox for most things, except where Firefox may not be able to handle specific sites.

Thanks Again,
Tom

Tom, I got headings & number of links when page loaded. Is your flash up-2-date?

Let me see what it does w/i e 8. I am not an I e fan, to put it
bluntly. Don't ask why. You'll get a tirade which u likely don't wanna
hear.

Sorry, I did forget to include that.  I am using JAWS 11.0.1430 and IE
8.0.6001.18720.  These should be the latest version with updates.

I am guessing that the Macromedia stuff is grabbing the focus and JAWS
never
gets to announce after the page is loaded.  Does this make sense that
this
would happen to you?  I have been told that the Kaptest website has
problems.  How did you perform your check.  I'd like to learn.

Tom, it's accessible, though there's a fair amount of flash content. U
don't state which version of jaws you're using, which browser, etc.
Makes it kind a difficult to comment.

Hello All,

I am having trouble with Kaplan in's web site while using JAWS.  JAWS
is
not
announcing the summary info, such as the number of headings and links,
when
the pages are loaded.  How do I check their web site to see if it is
accessible?  Their URL is www.kaptest.com in case anyone is curious.


Thanks,
Tom
