That is interesting and all, and the last thing I want to do is support those A**holes that call themselves FreedomScientific (hey they have earned that assessment for sure), but do you have any evidence that JAWS would not read the page as well as WindowEyes and the author of that page was not just siting the well known screen reader example? Jaws is always referenced by those that know nothing about screen readers beyond what they are called. Just saying. I'm not sure, based on the message, that the statements can really be supported or not. That's why I'm asking!
