There is a new update to Silverlite that is supposed to work better in text
edit boxes. Make sure you have the latest one installed. Not sure if the
latest jaws might help as well? It's anyone's guess whether this will work for
you or not.

New update!
They used silve 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.

Subject: [ATI] slash compatible with JAWS
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.
