This worked just fine for me. I used vokeys with arrows once I had
interacted with the html, I could have just tabbed and pressed space
on the popup press down arrow to get to my fruit, press enter, tab to
and activate submit with space.

HTML includes select boxes where you can pick one item and select
boxes
where you can pick multiple items. Your report is a bit confusing
because you refer to "multi-select list boxes" but go on to give
selecting your state from a select control as an example: presumably
you
only have the one state. So I gather you're experiencing problems with
select boxes generally. The examples you've given are quite complex
pages, so I've created an extremely simple test case at:

Are you able to select your favorite fruit from the list and submit
the
form? You should get returned a page that tells you which fruit you
selected. If not, can you please describe the keys you're pressing and
what happens when you press them? (I'd test this myself, but I don't
have Leopard and won't have it any time soon.)

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.
http://www.vonage.com/vaccess
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,
