Hello, I'm just wishing to add my two cents worth. I am must echo the
same concerns about Safari. It is one of the major reasons why people
give me for not switching from windows to the mac because they say if
one can't browse the web without being worried about what kind of page
they are going to then the inability leads to frustration. In the case
of one friend it resulted in the return of a macbook. I hope that the
next update of voice over will have support for web 2.0.

I don't use MobileMe but I know that Ajax apps in Safari are
problematic at the moment because Safari won't allow focus to be
moved programatically except to very specific things on the page
like links or form elements. Most other browsers allow focus to be
moved to regions of the page like spans and divs (html containers).
So normally accessible ajax apps would update some region of the
screen and then move focus to that change so the screen reader will
take notice. Can't be done in Safari until they support focusing on
more types of things.

Here's an article from macworld on Mobile Me. It sounds like the
Mobile Me platform is in Ajax. I'm no programer or advanced VO
user so you guys who are can tell us what we have to look forward
to in terms of accessibility. How well will VO do with Ajax?
