I'm looking at a page with NVDA. When I use Chrome or IE it works fine. But when I use FireFox, it keeps saying "clickable clickable" etc. for every element including text. It looks like every element including <p> has an event handler for onclick from yoshki library?

One of my web developers created a login page with exactly that behaviour. I don't believe we were able to resolve the issue, and it was not just NVDA but also JAWS that saw the Headers and plain text as clickable items.

I don't know if we found a specific cause of the clickable being declared.

Best wishes,

Jonathan Cohn

Jonathon;

This sounds similar to a defect that I found with Adobe Captivate.

When you read an HTML5 page produced by Adobe Captivate using either JAWS or
NVDA you hear the word "Clickable" at the end of each line regardless of
whether the line's content is clickable.

This happens because the entire screen is clickable. All of the content is
contained within an element called "div_Slide" which has on it an "onClick"
JavaScript event. Everything on the screen, (headings, text, etc.), is
considered by any browser to be a child of div_Slide and therefore
clickable.

As an example if you click on a heading which you consider to be not
clickable you are actually clicking on div_Slide which may not or may not
actually do something.
