JAWS 7.1, the current shipping version, > works well with IE7 with the exception of drop downs on web pages that are > expanded or that the user expands. JAWS 7.1 does not read the item with > focus in these cases. Freedom Scientific plans to release a free update to > JAWS 7.1 that fixes this issue in approximately a week. JAWS 7.0 and > earlier > have several problems including missing content from frames on web pages, > characters occasionally lost when typing in edit boxes, the previously > described issues around web drop downs and the fact that JAWS > configuration > files which add specific enhancements for IE do not load. Updating to JAWS > 7.1 from JAWS 7.0 or the 7.1 patch is a free update. Please watch the > Freedom Scientific home page for more details. >> >> Window-Eyes - GW Micro >> >> Window-Eyes 6.0, presently in public beta, will be the official version >> of > the software to support IE7. We expect it to ship before the end of > November. The biggest difference between 6.0 and 5.5 is that 6.0 > automatically announces some of the newer security notifications for > anti-phishing, secure and IDN web pages. Window-Eyes 6.0 also has better > performance when loading web pages into the product's browse mode with > IE7. >> >> Window-Eyes 5.5, the current shipping version, works without any blocking > issues with IE7. Users will find that the program's browse mode does not > come on automatically if a web page sets focus to an edit box. In > addition, > browse mode can not be enabled when in an edit box on a web page. In both > cases tabbing to another item on the web page makes browse mode available. >> >> ZoomText - AI Squared >> >> ZoomText 9.04 Magnifier and MagReader, is the official version to support > IE7. Users running any ZoomText 9.X version can obtain a free update to > version 9.04 using ZoomText's update feature or via a download from the > company's web site. More details are available on the AI Squared update > page. >> >> ZoomText 9.03 Magnifier, works with IE7 today if the user makes a >> one-time > change to IE's Use Clear Type setting. The user must turn this off from > the > Internet Options dialog. This is found in Internet Options:Advanced > Tab:Multimedia:Always Use Clear Type. ZoomText 9.03 MagReader App and Doc > readers do not work correctly with IE7. The issues have been resolved in > ZoomText 9.04. >> >> Hal, Lunar and SuperNova - Dolphin >> >> Dolphin recently released updated map files to support IE7 with their 6.5 > and 7.01 product versions. There is the possibility that users of the > Dolphin products will experience a crash with IE7 but the fix is a one > time > rename of a file detailed in a Dolphin KB article. >> >> There is a wide range of assistive technology for Windows and IE7 and >> this > list covers only a few products. We welcome your feedback on your > experiences with IE7 with the technology you are using. We'll continue to > work with the assistive technology industry on support for IE7 and future > versions of the product. >> >> Kelly Ford >> IE Accessibility Team >> >> Published Tuesday, November 07, 2006 10:03 AM by ieblog >> >> > http://blogs.msdn.com/ie/archive/2006/11/07/ie7-and-various-screen-readers-a > nd-screen-enlargers.aspx >> >> -- >> The BlindNews list is archived at: http://GeoffAndWen.com/blind/ > > > > Send instant messages to your online friends http://in.messenger.yahoo.com > > > To unsubscribe send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] > with the subject unsubscribe. > > To change your subscription to digest mode or make any other changes, > please visit the list home page at > http://accessindia.org.in/mailman/listinfo/accessindia_accessindia.org.in > > ____________________________________________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
