Hi

Do you mean that you go to "sign in with Twitter" and the problem is
on that page?

If so, I can confirm that Jaws 13 (latest update 13.0.527( with IE9
only reads "username required" and "Password required" when I use "e"
or tab to get to these fields.
This applies both with user vrebosity = advanced and beginner.
When I select the main landmark, however, Jaws reads a whole lot of
text, not sure if it is a Jaws bug or webpage problem.
hth, I'd be happy to test with other browsers as of tomorrow (finally
get my new development machine, this one has been on its last leg for
2 months now *grin*).
