When I built the extension Jaws only worked in Internet Explorer. But nowadays I guess you are right in that it should change. Maria, that is actually by design.

One thing made me laugh, though. After outputting the page information and the page title, Fang proceeds with “Internet Explorer”. As Fangs is a Mozilla extension only, it would be great to read the correct application name. Kind regards, Maria Dear Peter,

Thank your for this wonderful extension. One thing made me laugh, though. After outputting the page information and the page title, Fang proceeds with “Internet Explorer”. As Fangs is a Mozilla extension only, it would be great to read the correct application name.

Kind regards,

One think I noticed is that the link list doesn't pick up the title attribute in links. So if I use an image for a link, say the company logo linking to the home page, it shows up as blank in the link list. I read somewhere that screen readers will use the title attribute if there is no link text. Just an idea for the next version. Thanks again Dave Hi, Thanks for making fangs available I use it for testing the accessibility of the websites I produce.

Do you have a list of the differences between the output of Fangs and screenreaders 'in the wild'? Thanks :-) Hi
