Hi Travis,

Thanks for your reply. I mean plugin accessibility as it relates to inserting a plugin's accessible hierarchy into the main browser/content accessible hierarchy (please see my last post to Christiaan).

I have certainly no criticisms of voiceover or Safari. I hope that, and my latest post helps to explain where I'm coming from.

cheers,
David

I'm not sure what you mean by accessibility plugins.
Safari works just fine with voiceover, and 90% of web pages I encounter on a daily basis.
What specifically did you have in mind when you ask about accessibility plugins?
Obviously flash isn't accessible, but that's not safari's fault.
There are issues where voiceover misses some text on the page, but these are mostly due to multi-level nesting of <div></div> tags, though there could be some I'm unaware of just because I can't tell they're there.
I don't use the things such as point sizes, color settings and the like, because I can't see the screen well enough for those to matter, but as I said above, most pages work just fine, so if you could explain exactly what you're after, I may be able to shed some light on the topic.

Hi Christiaan,

Thanks for your reply. I was hoping this would be a good way to start a discussion about OOP plugin accessibility but maybe this list isn't the right place?

I probably didn't look at the right docs... can you point me to the one with all the answers? :)

cheers,
David

Hi all.

Does Safari have any plugin accessibility support?

Yes.


If so, what about for out of process plugins?

cheers,
David


No.

If the answers aren't very useful that's because you're asking the wrong questions (just a friendly advice, the docs have all the answers).

Christiaan
