I guess it's one of those websites that gets easier with use, like another one that's been tormenting me this morning. Courts here in the U.S. are increasingly agreeing that websites are a legitimate accessibility target, but I suspect our Justice Department isn't actively pursuing these cases. Meanwhile, we're stuck with websites like this that work, if you're diligent, but that take more time than they should. I contacted the website that gave me problems this morning with specific questions, and I'd urge JAWS uses to do the same in these situations. Bit by bit, the message gets through.

I've just gone through the process up to the point of selecting Rome as a destination. Let me see if I can recall the steps. First, there is a line near the top of the page, as JAWS reads it, that asks you to "continue" in English. Although JAWS doesn't say it's a link, it is. I pressed enter. On the next page, I went down to the link for "flights" and pressed enter. ON the next page, I went down to "return" and made that selection. Now I was presented with several options, one of them being an edit field that shows the website recognized my location. That is, the field named New York and the local airports. As I say, it's an edit field, so if I wanted, I could enter another city or airport. Clearly, it's meant for my departure and ultimate return location. I kept it at New York. Right underneath that edit field is one that's unlabeled. I took a chance and typed in Rome. After waiting a moment, I refreshed the page with JAWS key+escape, and not only Rome appeared, but also the relevant airports. I stopped there. I hope this helps you and your client get you over the initial hurdle. -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of David Whitehead Sent: Tuesday, August 01, 2017 2:12 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] web site and jaws Hello; Well, trying to setup a trip, On the web site is not easy.

What are the difficulties you are having? I had heard of the site before and may have even been there on some occasion, but I can't really recall. Lookingg at it now, it seems fairly straightforward, and potentially useful..I should start writing reviews. Looks like they could use more headings on their site to make for quicker navigation, but it's not too bad. -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of David Whitehead Sent: Tuesday, August 1, 2017 8:29 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [JAWS-Users] web site and jaws Good morning all; Has anyone been successful using the link; Trip advisor?
