Thank you so much, Justin! Omniweb is AWESOME!
I, too, have emailed Apple Accessibility regarding the Blackboard
issue. I encourage all other college students on this list to
email them as well. The address is accessibil...@apple.com.

Hello,
I'm sorry for not replying to this sooner. I didn't have this
problem last semester, and only just ran into it tonight. After
checking that the college had not upgraded to a new version of
blackboard, I figured that this must be something that has
changed with safari 5.1. So I tried an alternative web browser
called omniweb. Sure enough, I can activate the link to create a
thread just fine with that. I'll email apple accessibility about
this, as I didn't have this issue before upgrading safari.
Anyway, you can download omniweb at the following link.

I hope this helps.

Hello list,
I am taking some courses online that use Blackboard. For these
courses, I am required to post answers to the Discussion Board.
When I click on the question and try to click the "Create Thread"
link, Voiceover says "Menu Bar". I see the Create Thread" link
via the Web Item Rooter and the Item Chooser menu, but get the
"menu bar" when I point my cursor to it. I've tried interracting
with the "menu bar", but it appears as text. I cannot click on
it.
What do you all do in these cases, beside asking for sighted
assstiance?
