Then assign the class "silent" to a <span> around the text you don't want to be heard. (This is all just a guess fromhttp://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/aural.html as I have no way to test it.)
Hide text From JAWS
Is there any way of hiding text [I]from
I have a page I am working on that has sentences referencing color: “Green Numbers = Number of Subordinates”, “Blue Numbers = Number of Direct Reports”….
Since colors are useless to someone using a screen reader I have inserted Comment/hidden tags in front of all the corresponding numbers describing what the following number is for (“Number of Subordinates: ” “Number of Direct Reports:”) to make sure a JAWS user knows what the numbers mean.
How do I hide text from a screen reader but keep so that a non-visually impaired user can read it.
