Re: problem with the blind mice mart site and nvda

Sorry, but why do you say it's inaccessible? It might not work in quite the way you like or are used to, but it's quite accessible using the latest NVDA, Firefox ESR and Windows 10 1803. Sure, the fields aren't read aloud when you tab between them once the forms mode comes on, but all you have to do is hit insert-space. Or you could look at the form before you start entering data, so you know what you have to fill out using the arrow keys.

It is interesting that JAWS 18 reads the labels in the way you are used to while NVDA doesn't. It'd be worthwhile perhaps to find out why this is. But it's really a very minor inconvenience, no?

I just tried the site with webbie and it's not accessible. These people should be ashamed of themselves--especially since they claim to be a site designed for use with screen readers.

Hi, Brian,

Do you have the webbie browser? Maybe you can try with that one. Since webbie is text-based, maybe you might have better luck with it.

When I tried to sign up for an account and I tab from edit box to edit box all I hear is edit has auto complete on the latest version of fire fox. When I tried the same thing with ie 11 all I hear when I tab from edit box to edit box is edit. I have restarted nvda with add ons disabled and it's still the same. This problems has been going on for years now and they have not fixt the problem. This problem occures in every edit box on the site the contact form and the sign up for email newsletters. you can't fill out any form if you don't know what information is required in each edit box this makes the site not accessable like it or not. I have the latest version of nvda and the latest update of windows 10 app ecentials.
