Becky, thanks so much for this! I'm having trouble getting it to work, though. I edited the current sound scheme as you described but JAWS didn't speak the color information in say-all mode, and when I tried Ins+F to query font information all it said was "font is default small." I'm using JAWS 7.0 and IE 6.0. What am I doing wrong? I would love for this to work! John "Good design is accessible design." Dr. John M.

I can make JAWS speak the CSS specified color changes in the document. WindowEyes can provide the color attributes for an element by pressing a particular keystroke after navigating to the element. I can not find a way to make Home Page Reader speak information about color or other attributes. This test file has basic instructions for enabling JAWS and WindowEyes to provide color information. Note that the text of the labels for the three edit boxes on the page refer to how the label color was created so you will see and hear the word "red" as part of each label.
