508-compliant hot spots impossible?

I'm trying to reach a definitive answer for a decision on
whether to purchase/recommend Captivate to my client.
I trying to create Section 508-compliant hot spots over an
existing screen shot (i.e., to simulate text hyperlinks that a
screen reader such as JAWS will read). Exploring my options with
click boxes and buttons, here's what I've found:
1. Click boxes do not allow alternative text.
2. Text buttons are the only button type that allows
alternate text, but the text cannot be made transparent, so they
are useless if I want to use them as hot spots.
Therefore, I've concluded Captivate cannot simulate text
hyperlinks that will be read by a screen reader. Can anyone prove
me wrong?

Clinton, thanks for the suggestion of trying NetSpot. The application sounds like it might be helpful for general network assessment although I'm not sure if it can provide much assistance in this situation.
I believe the internet connectivity issues I'm experiencing have more to do with whatever kind of "sensing"  that the router/hotspot uses. Generally when I go to a new hotspot, after choosing it in my list of avalable networks, a hotspot window will automatically open asking for my agreement to the terms of useage. That never happened at the hotspot I was having trouble with. I was able to choose the hotspot, had an excellent signal strength and was assigned an IP but never got any further than that.
So I'm not sure what NetSpot will be able to do for me in that situation but I'll download it and try it.

  • Why does firefox not display photos with Hot spot slices in them

    I took a photo and brought it into Fireworks and created a graphic map with hot spots to certain countries. While this looks great on Internet Explorer its not showing properly in firefox at all. http://www.aist.org/chapters/chaptermap.htm
    Heres the example .

    That website is an MS Office document that has VML content for the images.<br />
    You can see that as green comment code in the page source (View > Page Source)<br />
    Only IE can display such a document properly.
    You need to save that page as W3C compliant HTML code and make sure that you disable VML to make it work in all browsers.
    Looks that something is wrong with the image count for images used when VML is not enabled.
    The image image003.jpg (http://www.karalee.com.au/index_files/image003<i></i>.jpg) should be:
    *http://www.karalee.com.au/index_files/image002.jpg
    The image image005.jpg (http://www.karalee.com.au/index_files/image005<i></i>.jpg) should be:

  • No internet connectivity from certain WiFi Hot Spots

    I've been unable to get internet connectivity using Tim Horton's WiFi on my MacBook Pro.
    I can select the Tim Horton network but when I launch my browser nothing happens.
    I've cleared cache and cookies, restarted laptop and a few other things, Not able to get on the Internet no matter what I do., My iPhone -was- able to connect without issue. This is odd isn't it?
    I've tried Safari and Chrome to no avail, I am being given an IP address but get  no further than that, The Tim Horton's join network page never shows up. Nothing.
    This has happened to me at 3 different Tim Horton's.
    I use my laptop at -countless- hot spots and have -never- had a connection issue... only at Tim Hortons.
    I don't know what's going on but something is  not right. It just happened to me this morning. I left Tim Hortons and went to Panera. BOOM. Instantly online.. Same with McDonalds which is right across the street from Panera. I can get on both places. But not Tim Horton's. Any ideas why?
    I don't know if this helps, but I did capture a log of the attempt to get online...

  • Airport Extreme Card- Connecting to "Hot Spots"

    I have a G4 iBook that came with an Airport Extreme Card. Is it possible to connect to "hot spots" at cafes, libraries, etc... with out having an internet connection of my own at home and without having an Airport Base Station? The computer recognizes the airport extreme card and my friend was able to connect with me computer to computer, but when I try to connect to the internet at a "hot spot" Airport does not show any networks. Is there any other hardware I need, or is it my settings on the computer?
    Thanks for any help with this question!

    edonnao, Welcome to the discussion area!
    Your G4 iBook should be able to join any 802.11b/g compliant wireless networks. You will not be able to see or join any 802.11a wireless networks.
    If the wireless networks are broadcasting their SSID (network name) the network name will appear in the AirPort menu. If they are not broadcasting their SSID, you will need to select "Other..." from the AirPort menu and enter the network name.

    Thanks for droping in my thread ...
    Doesn't the fact that I can surf the web with my iPhone's hot spot and that I cannot use Mail normally has I normally do give you a clue what the problem could be ?
    What other information can I give you other than normally I can surf and send email with my regular ISP.  Now that my ISP is dead I am using my iPhone's hotspot to surf the web awaiting that my ISP's connoection returns. Surfing is OK but I cannot send emails with through Mail.

  • HT1688 My Hot Spot does not work after update to 6.0.1.  Service is with ATT.  Apple says problem is with ATT, ATT says problem is with Apple.  Anyone else having this problem?

    My Hot Spot does not work after update to 6.0.1.  Any suggestions?

    Ok, I had the same issue, my phone is unlocked(iphone 5 with 6.1.3). So I went to the apple store and had it replaced. it worked good for a day and started doing the same thing. When the apple tech replaced my phone, he transfered my screen protector to the new one.
    so I thought it was my sim card, I put in my sisters sim card from a different carrier and it did the same, so then I was like let me take off the screen protector, and that was it.
    so guys, if you have a screen protector on your phone and it's doing "low signal", "No Service", "Searching", "Full bars cycle" then take off the screen protector. so far my phone is working normal.

    I have been a loyal customer for years and have a hot spot because internet options are very limited in our rural area.  I have stayed with 10G since the beginning.  Most months I don't use the 10G.  Verizon has no problem with me paying for Data I don't use.  This month my daughter comes home from College and she accidentally uses 24G.....14 over get blind sided with $140.00 in overages.  I called Verizon today......stopped in to the store today......My neighbor told me they waved charges for her one time.  Lots of charges.....But I'm am getting no help.  Not even an offer of a payment plan to help me out.  I went back just 6 months and I have over paid for 19G.....Seems like they would like to help out their loyal customers!!!!     Does anybody have any suggestions on how to deal with them?   We are not wealthy....or I would just pay this and walk away......

    There is a big misconception in what customers believe a cell carrier is obligated to do.
    You pay a set price to use up to that amount of xx data. It makes no difference if you use it to the paid limit or way under. Its like peace of mind when you don't have to worry about a data counter.
    Your daughter used the data, your plan is quite clear of what overage charges are. Why should or would Verizon wireless just forgive the charges because you are a customer? Your daughter used the data, get the money from her. That is the responsible thing to do.
    There is no "I have been a loyal customer so please remove the $120, or $250, or $2,000.00 since I did not mean to use it"
    Your electric company, or gas company or any other company does not remove valid charges. Why should Verizon wireless?
    Just pay the invoice and don't think you are being mistreated because Verizon is a business and not a charity.
    Good Luck

  • Drop-Down Hot Spot Images

    Hi,
    When I generate a SSL Print out of topics that use Drop-down
    Hot Spots with images in them, the images print out. I do not want
    them to print out. I have tried the Advanced Options and unchecked
    "Include drop-down text" and they still print.
    If there isn't a easy way to stop them from printing, is
    there a way to stop the text from getting messed up by wraping to
    the right of the image, it would be better to have it start at the
    bottom.

    You could try adding a conditional build tag against them and
    excluding this from your printed output single source layout. I
    haven't tried this so can't say it would work for definite but it's
    worth a go.

  • Sending email using Mail from T-Mobile Hot Spot

    I cannot send email messages from a Hot Spot using the Mail program. It says it cannot send using the server smtp.mac.com. This is the first problem I've had with this. Today is my first day using a Hot Spot. Has anyone encountered this same issue? Do I have to change some of the settings?
    I tried using the Internet based .Mac account and was able to send messages but not directly from Mail program.

    5. Does T-Mobile provide me with an email account?
    T-Mobile does not provide email accounts for its users.
    6. Can I access my personal email account through my T-Mobile HotSpot account?
    You can access any web-based email account such as Yahoo.com or Hotmail.com. You can also access corporate email accounts if your employer provides you with a virtual private network (VPN) client and a firewall. T-Mobile strongly recommends that its customers take measures to ensure the security of their wireless connections, such as virtual private networks (VPNs), encryption and firewalls. As with any wireless communication, the T-Mobile HotSpot service is not inherently secure and you should ensure you have adequate security safeguards in place. See the Hotspot Security Statement posted on our website for additional information concerning the security of the service and steps you can take to enhance the security of the service.

  • Follow up on hot spots

    To follow-up on previous hot spot question-a response that I received indicated that you couldn't put a hot spot on a background image. Is there any other way for this to be accomplished.
    I try to the following to Hot Spot the following items:
    Search for home listings here, and
    Search for land listings here.
    Please look at the following website.  You will see what areas that I am trying to Hot Spot.
    http://www.grutkowski.com/index5.html
    Thank you for your responses.

    Simply take your header image out of the body background CSS. 
    Insert image directly into the HTML document.  Insert > Image...
    Once you do that, you'll have no trouble using the hot spot tools.

    Hi, I have attached an excel file to a pdf document. I need to open this document in a new window by clicking an icon/hotspot in the pdf document to which it it attached.
    I am using the Link Tool to create a hot spot around the icon in the pdf. In the next window I am using the Go to Page view option, opening the attachment to its first page and clicking the "set link" button.
    For some reason, clicking the hotspot does not open the excel document as it does another pdf document.
    Need help resolving this issue with attached documents.

    Select a particular download file. Press COMMAND-I to open the Get Info window.  In the Open With section choose the desired default application from the dropdown menu then click on the Change All button.
    For .dmg files use DiskImageMounter (System/Library/CoreServices/ folder.)
    For .zip files use Archiver - same folder as above - or download TheArchiver - MacUpdate or CNET Downloads.

    I completely agree with this. However, if having an image as a heading was important (if you styled it in a way you can not with CSS) you could always code the image into the heading through CSS.
    Something like:
    <h1 class="heading">This is a heading</h1>
    h1.heading {
    margin:0;
    width:??;
    height:??;
    background: #000 url(ImageURLHere) no-repeat;
    text-indent:-9999px; /* This will move the text of the heading off-screen */
    The 0 margin on the style should clear up the gap as well.
