Hey #Blind friends using #ScreenReaders like #JFW how on the earth do you now edit your #Amazon.com shopping cart I.E. if you wish to remove an item? I'm in Chrome today and can't figure out how to do it.
So far I've tried 2 different screen readers. I can not find any on screen elements such as combo boxes, edit fields or buttons to change quantities or remove or delete items. This is quite confounding.
@robini71 this is not just a you thing.
@munchkinbear @robini71 I am finding the edit box for quantity in my cart,. Using Chrome and Jaws at the moment.
@MamaBraille @robini71 I'm not, I just tried it last night.
@MamaBraille @robini71 I can sort of get around it by clicking proceed to checkout but that's not cool.
@munchkinbear @robini71 Not sure why I would be then.
@MamaBraille @munchkinbear @robini71 I can't even see what is in my shopping card. I just put something in it. it says cart sub total, and shows me the amount, but I can't even see what is in the cart. I am using latest JFW, and kchrome here.
@JamminJerry @munchkinbear I'm so sorry you've joined my club I wouldn't wish this on anyone.
@robini71 @munchkinbear well we get just about everything from amazon, and until now this hasn't been an issue. we made purchases last week if I am not mistaken.
@JamminJerry @munchkinbear I did too.
@robini71 @munchkinbear I am about to call the accessibility line about this. this is 99 layers of not cool!
@JamminJerry @munchkinbear Hahahaha good luck friend I wish you super good luck with them.
@robini71 @munchkinbear ok, thanks to May she told me how to do the cart. it makes no sense, but does work. here are the steps to do it.
1. kgo to your cart.
2. find the heading that says shopping cart, heading levil 2.
***do not use arrow keys yet***
3. press the tab key until you hear your first item that is in your cart.
4. if using google crome, you can at this point use the down arrow key to find the delete button like you used too.
***very important note***
if using a mac, do not use arrows at all! keep using the tab key, other wize it will take you out of the shopping cart area.
@JamminJerry @munchkinbear This is insane. It shouldn't have to be like this. I'm about to try.
@robini71 @munchkinbear it will work, as I just did it. I can record it so you can hear me do it.
@JamminJerry @munchkinbear No it's ok I believe you I'm just saying that if they think this is a good solution they're crazy. People with cognitive load or dexterity issues are really gonna struggle with this.
@robini71 @munchkinbear I wonder if they know they broke it, as if you were sighted, you would be using a mouse, and the stuff is there. may said this just happened, it wasn't like this yesterday.
@JamminJerry @munchkinbear I used down arrow and still no delete button by me.
@robini71 @JamminJerry @munchkinbear I am so confused! I even tried to update chrome and break things, and it is still working for me. WTF!
@MamaBraille @robini71 @munchkinbear I hope this recording helps you guys out. sorry for my voice being a bit loud, it didn't sound that way in my earphones, but I was more conserned with getting this audio out to you guys.
@JamminJerry @robini71 @munchkinbear Any way I do this, it is working for me. I'll try it on my machine downstairs and see if anything is different.
@MamaBraille @robini71 @munchkinbear well like I said, may said this just started today, as yesterday she did an order and it wasn't like this, and she uses a mac.
@JamminJerry @MamaBraille @munchkinbear I just listened I'm gonna try again. Interestingly when I got to shopping cart it was saying share such and such an item it wasn't just verbalizing them as yours did. Neat chime you had in there too what caused that?
@robini71 @MamaBraille @munchkinbear the chime thing is something in leasie I believe. it lets you know the page is ready for you to view.
@JamminJerry @MamaBraille @munchkinbear Oh neat I love chime sounds. And still no joy here. Interestingly I have an all carts heading that you dind't seem to have and my items don't just verbalize they say share before them.
@robini71 @MamaBraille @munchkinbear that is just 99 layers of strange! you would think that if we are using the same screen reader, and the same browser, we should have the same results.
@JamminJerry @MamaBraille @munchkinbear You would, and yet we're not. Now we have like 3 or 4 different variants.
@robini71 @JamminJerry @MamaBraille tabbing once I got to the cart level 2 heading worked, and I could then arrow down. This is all kinds of strange and stupid.
@munchkinbear @JamminJerry @MamaBraille Hmm weird i cannot get that to work at all.
