Hello,
Could anybody please tell me if the slider on the linked page is accessible to the screenreader
users among you?
http://jqueryfordesigners.com/demo/coda-slider.html
In its present form -- with ul.navigation a:focus set to "outline:none" -- you can't even reach the
tabs for tabbed browsing, which can be easily changed, though.
But what about you screenreader users? I checked the page with the Firefox add-on FANGS and all the
text is mentioned in the output window, as well as all the headings and links. But I doubt that
screenreader users would know where exactly they are on the page? Any comments will be greatly
appreciated.
In case it's not accessible for screenreaders, would anybody know how to get this accomplished in
this example?
Thank you very much for any help.

Hi there,
I went to the page, but didn't find anything called a slider. Maybe
it's my novice, but what am I looking for? Sounds like some foreign
language and links, but nothing called a slider. There is an unlabeled
image, could that be it? Not sure what to look for. I'm using
Voiceover with Leopard and Safari.
