Subject: Re: [WebAIM] Browser plugin that shows what a screen reader sees?

Instead of looking for an emulator, which would have a hard time keeping up with differences between/among screen readers, as they evolve and, we trust, improve, perhaps the better way to go is to take advantage of the visual functionality already available in screen readers, especially the ones that are free.


Here's an article that outlines options and seems pretty up-to-date, as far as I know:
