Well, neither of those buttons were rendered in the jaws virtual viewer at all, 
whereas if I take out the style attribute, they then do.

Stay well

  Hi,

  OK. It is good if both do not display. I just want to make sure that you 
meant that the content did not display. If it did not display, then that's what 
we want.

  In a webpage here, I just tested both of the following using jaws12, in IE9, 
and neither of them displayed as such:

  <input type="button" value="should be hidden" style="visibility: hidden;" 
/><br />
  <input type="button" value="should be none displaying" style="display: none;" 
/><br />

    There are two CSS properties that you might want to test. 

     

    display: none;

     

    and

     

    visibility: hidden;

     

    I would be interested in these results as well, and if possible I'd like to 
know the build version of JAWS, found on the About dialog of JAWS.

     

    Thanks,

    Hi,

    Someone I was talking with told me that JAWS 11 honored the CSS 
display:hidden attribute, but JAWS 12 doesn't. I don't have JAWS 12 to test 
with. Can anyone confirm or whatever the opposite of confirm is?

    Thanks.
