revealing test feedback on question page
August 18, 2006 12:00 AM
My experience with screen readers is that they do not read text on the screen that suddenly "appears". For example if you have a button that onclick you show a text field, it will not read that because it was not there when the screen initally came up.Now, the solution (In my opinion) is you can either put in a refresh command to completely refresh the screen so the new text can be read, or better yet, (and what I'm doing) have either a windows alert box, or a new page in a window appear. These new windows that popup, (remember- different from show/hide) immediately get read but the screen reader.If you need more info, feel free to ask...Joe
