<div dir="ltr"><div><div>Hi Wink and everyone else!<br></div>Phyllis Petteys and I were just emailing about this Google pronouncement. So is that correct that screen readers (even ChromeVox) will no longer be able to read math if Google only uses MathJAX? That's what I was surmising, but it's never explicitly covered in the article. Some little piece of me was hoping maybe Google had another way. What happens if someone is using Chrome and the website has MathML? I wonder what ChromeVox will do with it? <br>
</div><div>We've been having a lot of trouble with IE and MathPlayer. Currently we can only make JAWS read MathML with IE 9 (32 bit edition). Now that IE is on version 11, this is getting more and more difficult! <br>
</div><div>Someone mentioned Firefox has a MathPlayer plugin, so that's what we will test next.<br><br></div><div>What are others recommending for a screen reader user to read math with? Oy! It shouldn't be this difficult! Why don't screen readers support the standard MathML? Why do we need plugins at all? <br>
</div><div>Never a dull day in this job! :-)<br></div><div>Best,<br></div><div>Karen<br> </div><div><br></div><div><div><div><div><div dir="ltr"><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms,sans-serif">Karen M.
