[nfbcs] FW: your advice would be appreciatedFW: [List] Handling

[Stanzel, Susan - FSA, Kansas City, MO]

I am trying to diagnose JavaScript problems with Java Surver Page code and I have had to have sighted assistance. JAWS was not reporting the real location where I was on the page. It is really hard when you are supposed to understand what has to be done to fix the problem you presented. These days, the more I work the more I know I don't know. I am afraid I see working in the UI layer to be very difficult and needing visual assistance. I would be happier coding in the business layor, but because I can point out Section 508 issues this is my job.

Folks,

The more mathematics and physical science a student learns, the less pure graphical programming he will need to do.  Physics and Math can provide another career that might be more stable than pure programming that, these days, is purely graphical.

Hello:

     The questions posed by Karl-Erik are certainly serious ones. If Karl-Erik needs this class, then he will need a reader to help him with it.
Testing is also an issue since he will also need a reader to help him with the test. Can these readers be the same person? The professor could question whether Karl-Erik really knows the coursework, or is he getting too much help from the reader.

     It is certainly possible to write HTML and CSS with a text editor such as Notepad, Notepad++, Edsharp etc. There are larger questions that need
answering:
1. How can Karl-Erik continue in college with courses that use simulation tools for design and testing? Speaking from experience, this issue will continue to arise.
2. When seeking a job, potential employers expect their employees to use the software the employer has in place. If a web system has been set up using a visually oriented tool, could a text editor system be used with the visually oriented tool without causing an assortment of problems?

     I am of the belief that much R&D in this area needs to be performed.

Regards,

Robert
