  1. Narrator functionality broken?


    I'm building a survey and as part of the process I'm using the narrator application to check my site is accessible. It's been a learning process and I know that my site isn't perfect.There is one thing however that is absolutely unacceptable. When Narrator is turned on I'm unable to type any information into the datalist entries. However when Narrator is off I can write my answer and tab to the next input.Can anyone offer advice as to how narrator handles datalist input and why it seems to block me from using keyboard in certain text boxes not all? Just as an aside, i'm also not able to use

    :)
