I took a look at the website, and the window control you mentioned. It's a client plug in, which is generally accessible. Window Eyes may not see this client window, although it should. You must also have the mouse pointer over the coin, in order to pick it up. This does seem difficult, because the coins don't expose anything directly. I believe you will need to use mouse keys, and also the click lock feature of the operating system. Click lock allows you to do drag and drop operations, by grabbing the object, on the first click. On the second click the object is released. Mouse properties are in the control panel, and click lock can be enabled there.

To: [email protected] Date: Friday, September 3, 2010, 12:35 PM Dear list: Using Window-Eyes, I would like to enter this contest. The link is at the end of my note. I have had limited success with drag and dropping and so I am asking anyone who does it a lot, whether it is accessible on this website. The point of the contest is to grab a coin and put it into one of two piggy banks. One bank is for the literacy council, and the other bank, where I wish to add coins is the Arc Of Winnebago County Disability Association. Whichever organization has the highest tally of coins at the end of the month gets $1,000. From the few minutes that I have played around with it, I feel that the process of adding coins is inaccessible to screen readers. I would be delighted if someone would prove I am mistaken and show me the steps of how to add the coins. An additional problem seems to be that the running tallies of the funds and other descriptive information is in graphical form. If you can take the time to try it, Please let me know if this is workable. Thanks.
