JAWS? Was that a freudian slip?

What I have noticed is, if the link (such as a graphic link) contains a title attribute, the filename and extension is read out. This can sometimes override the alt tag. I avoid using the title attribute anyway, as JAWS does not read them by default. I would suggest writing to Apple accessibility and pointing this bug out to them, and also raising it as a bug on their bug report website. I have done this in the past, but the bug is still there.

Are their any good references/resources that describe how VoiceOver reads HTML? I've found that it works slightly differently to JAWS (surprise surprise). For instance, sometimes VoiceOver seems to read the file extentions on links, and it also seems to read the alt text on links like a help tag.

I do a little amature web design like so many others and would like to know how best to create a website for VoiceOver accessibility.

Thanks for any help.
