I think we can all forgive you for not knowing everything. *smile*
There are some other interesting things I've been learning about screenreaders this month as part of my link-gathering for Disability (http://disability.dreamwidth.org). And a lot of it makes me go "D'oh, of course", whenever I read it.
Like, you know how in a lot of forms they'll put the "instructions for filling this box out" underneath? Which means the screen reader won't tell you how to fill out the box until after the box. Less than effective.
(Of course, the same resource also informed me very firmly that all people with mobility issues are incapable of using a mouse. Which was news to Don.)
