Re: [WSG] font names problem in internet explorer
Hi Marvin,
I don't have any experience with screen-readers, but here is a suggestion.
It seems the only place you have defined a font is on body.
Maybe it just reads out the explicit attributes you give the header, as in
center.
Try defining the same font-family on the header, as well, to see if it
works then.
If that does not work, maybe it only reads out the header font-family if
it differs from the rest. Try defining a different font-family for the
headers.
Just an idea,
Stuart

was able to go to a couple of sites.
use the insert f command in jaws which reads the font on the selected

so wonder if my font names are all screwed or not right.
how to fix this.
please help me out.
when i was internet explorer 7, would read the font names.
but in internet explorer 8.
