<br>
I just tried attaching a file to a GMail message (using the web-based GMail) with Jaws 16 in Firefox 41, and IE 11. In both cases I was able to navigate to the Google Drive folder and choose a file... Jaws read the filenames in Google Drive just fine.<br>
<br>
Hope this helps.<br>

Does anyone know if google gmail and drive are yet accessible to<br>
screenreaders such as JAWS and NVDA? We recently had a student report<br>
working with a team of students where it was required to attached documents<br>
from Google drive via email. This student was using JAWS with Google gmail.<br>
Reportedly, she could open up the gmail dialogue to attach a document but<br>
could not read any document names from drive to select the appropriate<br>
file. Has anyone else encountered this issue?<br>
<br>
One other - perhaps larger - question: what do you do if an application<br>
such as Gmail with Google Drive only works with a screenreader/browser<br>
combination a student AT user does not regularly use. Where is the line -<br>
or is there a point - where you require the student to use a different<br>
technology?<br>
<br>
Thanks in advance.<br>
<br>
