Hello, I am doing some VoiceOver experimentation with scrolling (the three-finder swipe up/down gesture).
My test page is at:
http://107.170.41.208/a11y/
There is a div with a scrollbar and lots of content (red background), and after that another div that is not scrollable with a lot of content (yellow background).
With the mouse I can scroll through the red background content, but using VoiceOver it skips that section.
How can I scroll through the red section content with VoiceOver?

If using overflow:auto to control scrolling, you can first move focus within the bounds of a scrollable region by touch, and then
use one finger to swipe up and down to scroll the content.
Unfortunately scrollable regions aren't actually conveyed by VoiceOver however, so a blind person can't tell which area is
scrollable versus another that is not.
