While I have seen some great lightbox experiments that do allow keyboard control, I haven't been able to find any that will trigger a screen reader to actually read the content within. My project is looking to use lightboxes for field-level help which can contain up to a few paragraphs of textual content, no unique images will appear within the modal window. Once the modal window is open, the only user controls will be to close the window by either selecting the 'close' option, or clicking outside of the content.
