I have an iPhone and Linux boxes.  I am having difficulty  reading
questions on research questionnaires on 23andme.com and am pretty sure
someone on their end does not know how to code forms correctly.
I have contacted the vendor and got a non-commital response about their
accessibility problems.  Be aware, anyone registering a kit and using the
service will have to negotiate captcha for authentication.  I got that
much done with the help of be my eyes.  I'm thinking about trying this
site using edbrowse not that I expect edbrowse to work either, I am simply
curious to know how far edbrowse will get with that site.  Those of you
with no knowledge of command line linux world will not know what I was
talking about then but that's okay.  Unfortunately with these iphones it's
not possible to have another browser automatically open up links rather
than safari at least at my current knowledge level.  I have a few others
on the phone and they might handle 23andme.com better than safari.
