RE: Can your browser and screen reader do this?

JAWS for Windows does. It reads, "North period. South period. East period.
West period," as you tab to each link in IE 4.01.

Lynx does. I imagine it works with a screeen reader pretty transparently.
(This is probably obvious, but once it is said people can be sure that
they don't need to repeat it, instead of just being fairly sure. *smile*)

  If you have a browser and screenreader... or a browser that combines those
  functions, would you take a quick look and see if it reads the text labels
  attached to the selectable area?  Please email results back to me at
  kasday@acm.org   .

  I'll post results back to the list.

  Thanks!

  p.s.
  I currently have access to two browsers. Only one of them sees the labels.
