Have you tried just pressing enter? This often works on drop down menus.
But you don't get any feedback to notify you that the menu has expanded.
Just cursor down.

Greetings everyone!
Can anyone suggest a place to start in learning about the browse objects and
other necessary info in order to be able to figure out how to make a stubborn
web page more accessible?
I have a particular one which has three (sort of) menu drop-downs but they show
up as lists and are not clickable in any way. I am not even able to route the
mouse pointer to them. Actually, I have succeeded in routing to the items once
or twice but it is certainly not consistent.
If a sighted person clicks one of the list items for me, the menu expands and
the resulting menu items are clickable.
My goal is to accurately get the mouse to the desired list item and click it so
the menus can be accessed.
I am working with the web page designers to make it accessible, but in the
interim (how ever long that may be), I thought I’d try to tackle it with
scripting. So far that is quite a challenge for me as I haven’t done much with
web pages in scripts.
One of these days I will have to take a script class for Window-Eyes.
Meanwhile, I wish we had a really good scripting book.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks.
Joe
