ABSTRACT:
Methods and apparatus, including computer program products, for providing information to a screen reader. A method includes the actions of receiving information for representing a web page in a browser; setting focus initially on an element of the web page and presenting the web page to a user; and in response to a user command directing the focus to consecutive target elements of the web page, assigning information related to each target element to a placeholder control and providing a screen reader with access to the placeholder control as the element having focus.
