NVDA's handling of checkboxes especially in Google Chrome
Brian, while it's true that screen readers by default target blind users, many w/dyslexia also find them helpful. It's thus an advantage, whenever the experience would permit, if the screen reader can

NVDA's handling of checkboxes especially in Google Chrome
Because if it's out of focus, NVDA doesnt know you wish to click it. It, like me, bombed telepathy 101. It's always good practice, if something doesn't work as expected, to use keystrokes like shift+b

Truthfully, I don't think the vast majority of web devs know the difference between clickable elements & checkboxes.

Yeah well, I'm not trying to be obscene here, but it's because the web designers didn't use checkboxes that expose themselves, or, perhaps to put it just a bit more succinctly, expose their state. & i

NVDA and Email Images
The accuracy of this tool to decipher captchas is so questionable as to make it virtually useless in that regard.

Does the latest release play nicely with Firefox? And the addon stuff isn't yet relevant if I update now, correct?
The problem had nothing to do w/NVDA. It was a problem caused by a change made to Firefox, & it's all been fixed now.

Weird Abbreviation Processing Mid-word?
When I also have this problem is w/heading numbers, as in <h3> Marketing </h3> It'll read March 3 ketting because it's translating the heading number into a date format, I guess. Truly annoying.

Why, oh why can I not get my choice of NVDA audio output device to stay as I set it?
Curtis, have you tried setting this in control panel > speech recognition > text-to-speech>audio output?
