[nabs-l] Facebook question

Mon May 14 18:22:51 UTC 2012

Facebook.com is fine. Are you using JAWS on a computer, a pac mate or
note taker, or voice over with an iPad or iPhone, or something else.
I'm asking so I can better help you out, because different screen
readers act differently with facebook. Don't get me wrong, it's fine
as far as accessibility goes, but as far as me giving you pointers and
all, it helps if I know what you use. /grins/
