I wish to be very sure I understand this.
In order to use chrome successfully, you must combine both voiceover and
chrome's screen reader? It takes both of them for something close to a
fully functional experience?

Hi,
Although I totally agree with Karen???s comment, in the meantime, ChromeVox
should be usable for you. The learning curve for basic navigation is not huge
and does seem to handle some sites, especially Googly ones, quite nicely. I
tend to leave VO on and just press control to quiet it when it tries to babble
at the same time as ChromeVox. You do need it though to read any MacOS menus
or dialogs that appear.

Thanks to TD Bank's hatred of Safari, and their assumption that everyone will just use
Chrome anyway (no seriously, the rep actually said that), I have to use Chrome to access
my banking site. The problem is that Chrome and VoiceOver seem to have a rather rocky
relationship. VO reads things, but can't navigate by heading, table, etc. it also reads
every link and button as "collapsed", which makes no sense.
I could deal with all that, but here's the big problem: I'm randomly dumped out
of the webpage content altogether, which makes this browser very difficult to
use at best. I can't find where my account information is, I can't get to it by
heading, and as I vo-arrow through the page, I could, at any time, find myself
out of the page completely and moving around the Chrome window.
Do I need to use Chromevox and disable vO? If so, please tell me Chromevox is
easy to learn and use. How would I enable it, and will it be good enough to let
me read account history and the like on this site?
