Thanks Marti for the suggestion. JCPenny wasn't as bad as I was hoping for. I am looking for examples where what looks like straight text is pulled from a separate .js file. I am also looking for examples where there are buttons (or links) that can't be tabbed to and can't be activated from the keyboard. I understand that events like "onMouseUp" can cause this effect, but I couldn't find a site that uses that sort of code (I suspect onClick has better cross-browser support). I have, of course, come across plenty of sites with these kinds of accessibility problems -- but I can't find one now that I am looking for a clear counter-example! > -----Original Message----- > From: Marti [mailto:marti@agassa.com] > Sent: Wednesday, November 15, 2000 4:20 PM > To: Bailey, Bruce; w3c-wai-ig@w3.org > Subject: Re: Another JavaScript question! > > > Try JCPenny.com - they have a JavaScript navigation that uses a large > <noscript> section that should make it accessible, however > you have to turn > off JavaScript to get that, even then the links don't show up > in the link > list for JFW. > Marti > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Bailey, Bruce" <Bruce_Bailey@ed.gov> > To: <w3c-wai-ig@w3.org> > Sent: Wednesday, November 15, 2000 3:53 PM > Subject: Another JavaScript question! > > >> Thanks for all the great assistance with making JavaScript >> "pop-up" help >> usable with a text-only browser. >> Now I am looking for examples of the opposite kind... >> >> Can anyone point me towards sites where the JavaScript is >> of the sort that >> even with IE5+ and JFW 3.7 the pages are inaccessible? >> I am looking for examples where: >> (1) a screenreader cannot get at text, and/or >> (2) buttons cannot be tabbed to (that is, they must be >> activated by the mouse cursor). >> >> Also, if people can advise as to what the code would use to >> create these >> highly inaccessible pages, I would be most appreciative. >> >> For what it's worth, the "onClick" attribute is not what I >> am looking for. >> Said links can be tabbed to and activated with the return key! >> >> Thanks very much. >> -- Bruce Bailey
