No, I can't explain what a screen reader would do with it. However,
if someone could explain to me what a screen-reader/user combination
expects, then I probably can write the code.
Just to be clear, I wasn't trying to be facetious. I'm curious.
Just to be clear, I had to look up "facetious". :-)
No, I realize that you, like me, are trying to understand what's going on.
That's why it's not obvious to me how a user knows how to find the
accessibility icon in your example. That doesn't mean it's necessarily
broken; I just want to know for my own education.
Same here -- I've asked before, but received no answers.
If I my CAPTCHA reads "Please click the accessibility icon" -- how
does a blind user find the icon and do it? Is my treatment of this
too simplistic, wrong, misguided, or what?
I'm looking for some direction here.
Cheers,
tedd
