Hi, when in Internet Explorer or Firefox, I see this when I first go to the http://www.gmail.com Webpage.
The first thing Window-Eyes says, is "Security report." Then, after that, I notice that the forms are not labled when browsing around at all outside of the form itself. (when Browse Mode) is activated. Window-Eyes simply identifies the controls as edit boxes. And not the fact that they are the: Username: edit box, and the Password: edit box, until after going into the form. Sometimes though, even after browse mode is deactivated, it still doesn't tell you anything. Other things: Alt-left arrow doesn't work, nor does alt-right. Also, while reading an email to Doug through Gmail.com (outside of browse mode) while still having my cursor in the edit box, (and yes) with a maximized window in Internet Explorer 8, I found that it was skipping words like hell. In fact, it was having problems (even with a redraw) of the OSM (Off-Screen-Moddle) and would not sync up again. When I typed the word daughter at one point, and backspaced the r, Window-Eyes read the "E" character twice, in other words, if I quickly hit it twice, it'd say "E E." (the first E, being an R.) Well, there was also an interesting point where Window-Eyes would say the word "Space if I backed up over a capitalized character, only speaking when I had it lowercase. (This is all outside of Browse Mode.) Is this a known issue? Or a possible one? I do not believe it is user error on my part. Does anyone know how to address this problem? Also, likewise, Window-Eyes seems to sometimes report stuff that doesn't seem to be around anywhere on the screen in general, such as the "Security report" at the top of all GMail pages ( that I hear with Window-Eyes) and yet, do not see when reading the title bar. I often use the basic GMail view on my laptop for various reasons, and store my mail witha mail client as well sometimes, but still, I'd like to see what's going on. Is there any feature where Window-Eyes will also enable us to lable forms with meaningful names? Maybe a checkbox says "Aaron rocks, check box unchecked. Alt-R. But let's say we hate "Aaron Rocks," and we wanted to lable that box to read "Aaron rules." Or whatever, if that was an actual form lable taht we were reading in browse mode. Thanks.
