Thanks John,

Interesting, the site doesn’t exhibit the usual inaccessibility signs but then
again I suppose it wouldn’t if content is simply missing instead of badly
rendered. I can see the additional combo boxes using JAWS 16 too, and some of
them show using 17 and Firefox though not all.

I’ve asked Freedom Scientific Technical Support the question out of interest.

Cheers,

Ed

hi there ed yes that's the one but after the upgrade a few days ago jaws is
not picking up some comboe boxes for example you should have one that says
check the events then one below is for going down to say division 1 or 2 just
try it with window eyes and you will see the difference. i will go on the
site later then i can better explain it.

so you should be able to see fixtures for say tomorrow's games in the
yorkshire league maybe i will email you offlist to explain it later. i '
tried it last night with jaws 15 and it works correctly or should i say much
better.

Hi John,

Are you talking about chessnuts$org$uk? I've just had a quick look with JAWS
17, and as far as I can tell, it seems to be fairly straightforward.

There don't seem to be any combo boxes, but there is a link for graded
events, which then lists various different types of event once you've
clicked on it (leagues, congresses etc). These appear as links.

You can click the link for whichever type of event you want, then further
links appear on the next page such as the different congresses or the
different leagues.

From each tournament/league, you seem to be able to access fixtures,
standings etc.

Apologies if you're talking about a different site or are looking for
different information on this one.

Cheers,

Ed
