[Trainer-talk] Outlook.com website and screen reading

[Lemieux, Shawn N]

Good morning,
I realize this may not be the answer you are looking for, however, the email could be set up to be forwarded or automatically sent to another more friendly web client. It is not perfect but might be a temporary work around.
Have a wonderful day!

I have actually had very good success using Outlook.com with NVDA and Firefox!
Hope this helps

I tried it with JAWS a few months ago and could not get JAWS to get to the messages to open them.  It is a great website for Zoomtext users, but not for JAWS users.  Unless someone knows some special tricks.  I did a web search and found nothing about using JAWS with Outlook.com.

Hi there,



Has anyone worked with the Outlook.com website for doing email?

If so, have you encountered problems with it regarding accessibility?



I have a new student who has an outlook.com account.  We've been trying to use the website.  When we hit the enter key on the link, we get nowhere.
The links also seem to double as check boxes, and we check one and still nothing happens.

We can see the messages but can't open them to read them.

Are there any particular settings one needs to have?



I've never worked with this site and have not had much time to do so this week, so any help would be appreciated.

Jim
