Hi,
Just went up completed the servay no problems. So where is my por
expairyance. Ok I can see if I could not get the job done but got it done
with no problem what so ever. So if you can get the job done where is the
por performance. It was quite simple to do. What is more I would have
done
the same with jaws or NVDA. Brows threw the form. Select the options I
wanted to check with space bar. Turn forms mode on when needed turn brows
mode back on with jaws. So not sure where window-eyes is so different
then
jaws. Sorry not trying to be obtuse here but I don't see a problem.

So could you have completed a survey form in a different way, so that
this
bias against Window-eyes does not affect the validity of the data you are
seeking to collect?
Yes, but only by making the checkbox and radio button options equally
inaccessible to all respondents (e.g., not using a fieldset/legend).
We would never deliberately neglect accessibility standards, standard HTML
markup, and common sense to render a very basic web form inaccessible and
non-compliant with accessibility guidelines just so all respondents are
presented with the same poor experience.
We realize that the lack of support for fieldsets may affect the viability
of those few pieces of data provided by Window-Eyes users.
It is untenable for us to instead break it equally for everyone else.
Instead, we're opting to educate Window-eyes users about the issue and
promote a future fix.
