Hello,
We are starting to use modal popups in application development and I need to know how screen-reader accessible they are. I would interested in any general comments you may have about them. Also, I would be very appreciative if the demo linked to below could be tested with different screen readers. This Bootstrap example is the code that we are using on an app (which I cannot put out for public testing). I am able to fully access information in these popups with my keyboard.

The link to activate the demo is labeled "Launch demo modal". It appears under the <h3> heading "Live demo".

Thank you for any testing (and opinions) you can provide.
