Rick,
I'm interested in the same issue. I'm using asp.net and would like the
validationsummary to be placed above the form, so that the user will have a
list of the errors. I can't figure out how to do this. I thought of the
idea of setting focus to the error list as an alternative. I hope someone
can give an insight into the best way to present form errors with asp.net to
persons who are using jaws.
