Checkboxes, Radio buttons etcetera (self.Blind)
submitted by BlueIze
I have a question on filling internet forms. I need to create forms at work. I am creating labels for all the form fields, check boxes, radio buttons and drop-down menus. But which of those do blind people find easier to use?
Occasionally I could change radio buttons to form fields or checkboxes to drop-downs.
What is the order of preference for those items? Is there any one that is most difficult, or easiest?
Thanks.

If your talking about labeled items, they are all fine. Just use radio buttons for a one choice question and or drop down boxes for those questions, and checkboxes if you want multiple selections and you should be fine. If they are all standard controls, you should be fine. Use form field when you ultimately want the people to type their answer to the question. Hope this helps.
