Comments on functionality for accessibility programs: >Since we currently don't have any special web support in our ZoomText >products, I may not have had much to add to the conversation. But, we >are very interested in improving our web support in the future. One >area I would like to stress, is the ability for an accessibility >application to command and control a browser. For example, we would >like the ability to navigate through a web page, highlighting spoken >text, scrolling a page up or down and executing links. Commands to do >so would originate in ZoomText. > >Our goal is to present a web page in a magnified form that is better >suited to a low-vision user (similar to what we currently do in >DocReader). But, we'd like to avoid the context switch of leaving the >browser into another environment. A good compromise would be for >ZoomText to programmatically control the browser while magnifying >sections of text in another window. The more command and control we >have over the browser the better. Ben Weiss Ai Squared
