[Nfb-web] FW: [Nfbmo] Screenreaders for Google Chrome and Firefox

[Milton Ota]

For firefox the latest build of JAWS works fine.

I also saw something on the Freedom Scientific website in the What's New
section of JAWS public beta 13 that there is some accessibility with Chrome.

The public beta had a recent second release the other day.

It is my understanding that there is some support for Chrome and for Firefox
in NVDA.  I think the 
Chrome support is still evolving, though, so Firefox may be a better choice.
I do not have personal 
experience with either, though.  There are a number of reasons that IE 9 may
not be working well with 
JFW, but I've never heard anyone say it was slow, and is it really true that
JFW doesn't support 
FireFox?

Best regards,

Steve Jacobson
