Author of Fangs has an great article about screen readers and how they behave.

He has a some great tips, for example, JAWS do not read title text on links as a default. I did not know that. A great quote from the author.

Use headings god dammit!

Also, a new version of Fangs is out, 0.80. Amazing progress.

Initial support for frames and iframes. Fangs will now render frame content. Frame title is rendered. Deeply nested frames work in Fangs but fail in Jaws. Unsure if it is possible to replicate this bug in Fangs.

List of links tab. The list of links tab is now working. Page links are displayed in the same way as in the link navigator window of a modern screen reader.

List of headings tab. The list of headings tab is now working. Page headings and their level are now available. This is one of the ways a screen reader user scans a page to get an overview of what it is about.

The announcement texts now has proper padding to make it easier to copy Fangs output to e.g. an email.
