Hi,

JAWS 11 is not able to read the image.This images is emebed into a
jquery datatable (http://www.datatables.net/)
This line of code is written on the server side in python.
Can someone let us know what is the correct way to do it and make it
readable through JAWS.

edit_link = "<a href="javascript:void(0);"><img class=center
clickable src=img/chunkedit.gif title=Edit
onclick=javascript:edit_t(%d)></a>" % (asgn.id)

OR

edit_link = "<a ><img class=center clickable
src=img/chunkedit.gif title=Edit
onclick=javascript:edit_t(%d)></a>" % (asgn.id)

Thanks.
