PhIxDA needs and update, and I just stumbled upon an article entitled JavaScript and Screen Readers detailing the quirks and compatibilty of several JavaScript events with the Jaws and Window Eyes screen readers.
It really was an enlightening read and the author makes this point:
We must begin to address the concerns of people who are trying to make their dynamic web applications accessible, or we will have no room to complain when the next batch of web applications prove to be unusable by the disabled.
Definitely something to think about… I thought that it was nice to see someone sticking up for the developer who’s trying to make compromises for accessibility.
I will give you all FTP access to the site if you want it just let me know. I know Bryan has it.
