[WSG] Accessible Flash?

2005-07-06 Thread Rachel Radford
Hi I'm wondering if anyone is able to give me any pointers of creating an
accessible flash movie?

I have this site: http://www.thesurveycompany.com which I am aiming to
change to an accessible flash movie and insert in the page using flash
satay.  I've read articles on how to make the flash movie accessible
(http://www.macromedia.com/resources/accessibility/) and I would like to
have the buttons in the flash movie come into the tab-order.  I've tried
what it says in the article on that page, but it's not tabbing onto the
buttons.

Has anyone done something similar before and able to give any pointers??

Is there anything else that should be considered when looking into making
flash accessible?

Thanks!

Rachel

Rachel,

See question #6 on WSG's own Ten Questions for Russ Weakley.  He 
addresses that very issue:
