Screen Reader Quirks

Last updated: May 6, 2007

Summary

This page documents the quirks I have noted in performing tests with various screen readers.

JAWS Quirks

• JAWS 7.10 does not read abbreviation expansions on the Web despite what is set in the verbosity settings or HTML options.
• JAWS (at least, version 8.0) does not read abbreviation expansions on the Web if you select text with the mouse, again, despite what is set in the verbosity settings or HTML options.
