Re: Making Sure of ARIA Screen Reading Settings

Hi Lucy,
I want to know what JAWS defaults to and make sure I understand that it is set to those settings. Then I want to understand how JAWS is supposed to treat live regions. Please forgive me for possibly wrong terms. After that, I want to retest and view source to ensure that the code is in that renders what I'm supposed to see. So far I have only made JAWS run faster and changed some keyboard settings and minimal other things. I don't know where to look for ARIA settings to see what it is set to, nor do I see documentation on what the company thinks JAWS is supposed to act like under various conditions, but I did run into Surf's Up, which gives *some info.

Thanks.

Jim
