They use silver light and not flash 
Does that work with JAWS?

  The multimedia software of which you speak is called Flash.  There are 
standards and instructions on the Adobe web site that explain and describe how 
to create accessible Flash content.  But they probably outsourced this project 
to some third party contractor.  I'm sure that most of the buttons are 
unlabeled, and the text edit boxes won't work.  You will really have to raise 
some cane to get this one fixed.

  I don't think this wetn through the first time
  Long story but my son's school Food Service company has changed their website 
programming to a "slash" and not "html'" format or programming or whatever you 
call it..  Consequently I cannot access it.  Normally it tells you how much the 
kid is spending and on what and lets you limit what they can spend.

  I nicely informed them since they receive federal funding they have to make 
the website accessible to me.  The one guy is being really nice but it is going 
to take some time.
  So, my question what is this "slash" and why would they use that and what 
else  can I tell them to get it going so they have it fixed.  Sam is only in 
the second grade and is going to get more variety of stuff to buy as he gets 
older into middleschool,  and high school etc.

  Of course I will set limits at home but any suggestions on how to handle 
this? would be appreciated. 
  This means what is "slash" and how can I tell them to make it accessible.  
The nice computer guy at school suspects that the slash is the problem.
  hmmmm
   Any insights?
  Thanks.
