My local bank has a new web site with a non-standard login screen. Normally, the word Username would be the label for an edit field, but in this case, it is data already entered into the field. This certainly caused some confusion for me and some login problems before I realized there was text in the field.
NVDA handled this problem best, selecting the text in the field when I used the Tab key to access the field. I could then just type my username and replace the text. NVDA spoke the words "clickable edit" when I access the field. With JAWS, I ended up with my username and the word username both in the field, which didn't work too well. When I accessed the field with my Tab key using Window-Eyes 9.1, and typed my username, WE apparently ate the r, a, and n in my username. The rest of the letters in my username were there along with the word Username. Very strange! I plan to contact the bank and ask the web page designer change the login screen to a more normal configuration.
