Hi Scott, I originally sent these comments to another list where you posted your message. I don't know if you didn't get that response so here it is again. I tried your page using Internet Explorer 5 and JFW 3.31 as well as Window-Eyes 3.1. I have a few comments. 1. Is it possible to list the access keys, for lack of a better term, in some fashion that allows the screen reader to cursor directly through the list, similar to using a word processor? As it stands now, the screen reader's focus is on the Ok button in the dialog box listing the keys and I had to use screen review keys (Jaws cursor, JFW; Mouse Pointer, Window-Eyes) to read the dialog box more than once. 2. It appeared to me that the only way to get the navigation keys you listed to work was to turn off support for Microsoft Active Accessibility in both JFW and Window-Eyes. This is a toggle in both programs but having to turn it off and on just to jump to the different sections of the page seems sort of to defeat the purpose of having the access keys. Kelly
