Does anyone know of a text reader program which will read web pages and works on Macintosh OS 8-9? I've tried eReader from CAST, but anything remotely dynamic is not only not understood, it's not even displayed. Even a simple textbox is not rendered, making the site inoperable. I've checked out iCab, Kurzweil, and a number of others listed on the w3c site for alternative browsers. There just doesn't seem to be a lot of support for Macintoshes in this area. I have students with learning disabilities who use Macintoshes for daily curriculum. We've put together a site that allows them to take exams, but if a form isn't displayed, they can't get in. I've looked at Macintalk (aka PlainTalk), but it doesn't appear to interface with Internet Explorer. Alternatively, if someone knows about a plug-in for either Netscape or Internet Explorer, I'd be happy to try it out. TIA.
