That's funny. You got a laugh out of me just mentioning lawyer jokes... Unfortunately, after 23 years in IT, it became extremely hard for me to make a living. Hopefully, I will be able to make a living and be an advocate for blind people at the same time.
My brother in law's favorite lawyer joke (he is a lawyer) -- What do you call one thousand lawyers at the bottom of the ocean? A good start!!! Tom Thanks, Tom----- Original Message ----- From: "Jackie McBride" <abletec@xxxxxxxxx>

I am afraid to, and will probably nottry 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.

You'll get a tirade which u likely don't wanna hear. On 5/15/10, Tom Ladis <tom@xxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: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.

Udon't state which version of jaws you're using, which browser, etc. Makes it kind a difficult to comment.

JAWSis notannouncing 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.
