First, I haven't meant to say that "browse mode" will vanish, just that a revampt impementation of it - if that's what's on the way - might mean that interaction with dynamic websites in particular may become very different.
I've no idea of how Serotec get around scemelessly interacting with forms etc and whether there's anything in that access program that equates to browse mode. I don't use the program at the moment so cannot comment on how well it works, but many say it works well. Possibly worth mentioning that Apple's Voice Over interacts with Safari without benefit of a browse mode, and not all Apple users are happy with this aspect of Voice Over. Be worth watching what happens with VoiceOver in the next Apple OS. Ray. Saqib wrote: I never thought brows mode benifitted anyone It's just another keystroke and another unwanted feature. Serotek have got it bang on the money. No brows mode and you can seeminglessly just arrow in to the fields. I know that sometimes field names aren't read when brows mode is on and I find this to be true with Jaws when the forms mode is on. I run both screen readers such as System Access and Window-eyes7. Both have their week points so each screen reader is used depending on the task. For example I would use WE7 for messenger and dealing with websites which have flash and pull down menus which can be only accessed by a sighted person who uses a mouse to hover over the menu name for the list to appear. WE7 is the only screen reader which can access those kinds of menus. The website in which I'm refering to is www.soccermanager.com and there will be a vertical menu across the top of the page in which you have to hover the mouse over to see the list boxes. I think you need to register and login if you want to test the menus. ----- Original Message --- If you reply to this message it will be delivered to the original sender only.
