Is "longdesc" recognized by screen readers?
 

All my "trials" for Jaws, Window Eyes, and HPR have expired.
Can anyone tell me whether longdesc is actually recognized by screen
readers?

TIA

Yes. In HPR it is.

It sets up a link called 'image description'.

Why not finding a crack at http://www.astalavista.com (watch out for
pop-up and porn).

move the furniture around before you leave.

That's illegal.

Just so you know.

Some people have respect for the law or the people who worked on those
programs.

I respect also the programmers and the law.
Some programs are, sometimes, too expensive to buy. Then I considder to
use a trail crack. If I really want the program, then I buy the full
version.

Your TV is too expensive for me to buy, so I'll just come take yours. If I
decide I really like it, I'll return it and pony up the dough to buy my
own.

(awaiting the expected argument, prepared)
