The difference is that those mouse over drop down menus were not really an obstacle to people using screen magnification. Yes, they were something to be accounted for. Yes, these newer Mouse-over Previews also require keyboard equivalents. My concern is that people with low vision do not generally find keyboard-accessible alternatives to be wholly satisfying. But it was all we could come up with during the call. I will be looking into this some more, so if anyone has an idea, please drop me a note off-list. > -----Original Message----- > From: Sailesh Panchang > > Refer >> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/w3c-wai-gl/2007JulSep/0099.html > > I would like to add: This issue is not really new. > Mouseover drop down menus that are not keyboard navigable > also often present the same set of challenges for screen > magnification / screen reading software users as well as > users who cannot use a mouse.
