[Athen] JAWS and IFRAME

[N. Dogbo]

It looks to me like coding and focus issues and not iframe or JAWS issues.

Are you using RIA widgets and stuff?

Also are you experiencing this with more than one browsers?

Lastly, you're indeed talking about iframe and not overlays / modals, right?


Thx,

Nicaise
