So you were able to select your state to search, town to search, or
specific job type? When I try to focus on thse items I only hear HTML
area and then get bumped to the top of the page. Tabbing through
visually selects the boxes, but pressing the up and down arrows
produces nothing. If I place my mouse over one of these using 12x
zoom, I still can't read the text, but Voiceover reads nothing. I see
blurry things, so there are multiple items in these boxes. If I try
control-option-shift-F5, it says "cannot move the Voiceover cursor to
the item under the mouse." This never happened in Tiger.

Hello,
Everyone click the following two links and discover the horrifying
result. You will not be able to complete these forms. This is due
to a lack of support for multi-select list boxes. As you could
imagine, this hurts Voiceover in a very significant way. I could
forgive application specific access issues, but this one if not
fixed will hurt the entire community for surfing the web effectively.

That's a Disney job site. Try and find a job by picking your state,
town, or any combination of those. Good luck. Now try it under
Tiger. Works perfectly. We've taken a major step backwards.

Try and find a local Vonage VAccess number near you. Those let you
dial a local Vonage nunber and call your friends who have Vonage.
You can select by location. Try that out, enter your area code.
Then try and select the "town" you're near to. Good luck again. Now
try it with Tiger.
Finally, try using Apple's own job board and try selecting
California. Now try and select a city to narrow down your search.
Good luck, you can't.
I've never posted something in this form with this level of
attitude. This is so important that if not fixed, it will cause
major damage to the reputation of Voiceover.
Everyone fill out bug reports at developer.apple.com or email [EMAIL PROTECTED]
and let them know the massive impact this will have on your
surfability. Find other sites to use as examples. If this isn't
fixed soon I'd hate to see the opinions of those out there who will
be reviewing Voiceover for its access ability.
Thanks,
