I do not use Netflicks. However, I understand that there are, indeed,
accessibility problems. So you're not alone.

Subject: [Blindtlk] Netflix, Jaws, and drop-down boxes.

Hello to all,

This question is for anyone using Jaws with Netflix.  I've discovered that
the drop-down boxes, or "Combo Boxes," as denoted in Jaws, are no longer
visible.  They are used to help sort searches, or change from season to
season, for instance, if browsing the seasons of a TV series.  I'm wondering
if anyone else has experienced this drop in accessibility with Netflix, or
if there are any scripts or work-arounds.  I've used Jaws 14, 10, NVDA, and
am using IE8.  With Jaws 14, will try IE9 to see if visibility and access
improves.

If any Netflix user has any ideas or helps, I would greatly appreciate
hearing from you, and you are welcome to respond to my e-mail
jtj1 at cableone.net.

Thanks in advance.

Judy
