Hi,

I am creating a form where there are 2 radio buttons (Yes/No). I have used a legend which contains the question. I am using JAWS to read the form fields.

When I do Insert+F5 it reads "Were you advised that you were going to be charged for a" and when I remove the quotes it read the all the text from the legend.

Example code :

<fieldset>
<legend><span class="legend_span1"> Were you advised that you were going to be charged for a &quot;No Show&quot; fee during registration?: </span>
</legend>
<input id="y_lab_2" type="radio" value="Yes" />
<input id="y_lab_3" type="radio" value="No" />
</ fieldset>

Thanks and Regards,
Ashitosh Jadhav
