Hi there,

I'm wondering if anyone uses a head-mounted mouse pointer system, and if they have issues with usage, particularly with web browsing. Which sites bother you? Are you able to navigate Flash animated pages? Are there any issues you notice with typing in text edit boxes, or selection of check boxes? Are you able to use video-heavy sites like youtube without issue?

If you do, please let me know what web sites are giving you grief, and what the specific issue is. I'm trying to compile data regarding web accessibility in software development, and need information 'from the field'.

Thank you everyone for your help.

I use TrackerPro. There are no issues surfing the Web or anything really. The computer simply detects it as a mouse and nothing more.
