[nfbcs] evaluation display of a web page

Sat Nov 2 22:19:56 UTC 2013

Screen layout is not going to help. It still removes any extra spacing that
sighted people see, and it still presents the elements in the order in which
they appear in the DOM, which very well may not be the order in which they
appear visually as rearranging elements using CSS is becoming increasingly
popular. Try using the JAWS cursor if you are using IE. If that does not
work, try the convenient OCR in JAWS, but you'll have to rescan every time
that you switch back to the PC cursor.

I have done that and they said to change my document presentation to screen
layout. I did, but I am not sure that helped. I think I have it fixed so
things are not wrapping now. I checked with my JAWS cursor. Now for how
things are placed on the page, I plan to wait for sighted assistance on
Monday when I return to the actual office.

Thanks for your help.

I would not neglect calling FS tech support to get a read on this. My guess
is that a bit of sighted help would serve you well.

I'm surprised your solution doesn't work.  I guess Jaws is changing the
screen layout?
My Alva display has different modes, line or structured.  They display data
a little differently.  Does your display have different display modes?
Jaws also has the mysterious invisible cursor, which might show things
differently from the plain Jaws cursor.
Sorry, I'm not being very helpful.
