Hi all, As you know, in the voice over utility, in the "web" section, there is a pop up button that gives access to choices having to do with when to navigate images. the choices are never, always or with descriptions. I had mine set to "with descriptions", but I found that at this setting, I would still see links that clearly didn't have alt text descriptions, such as those you hear that say xxx.gif or xxx.png where xxx is the name of the file. So that made me wonder what is meant by "navigate" images. Today, on a website www.uueugene.org, which is managed by a friend of mine, while reading all from top with vo plus a, I heard vo say "vertical line" 2 or 3 times as it read through links. So I set navigate images to never, and still, I hear vo say "vertical line". I asked my friend, and she told me that she has the empty alt text associated with these images, in accordance with the 508 guidelines. And when I read this site on a pc using a screen reader, the vertical lines are nowhere to be heard.
So with that long explanation, can somebody please clarify for me what the image navigation in vo is all about? mary Mary Otten [email protected] -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.
