Could access all parts of the form (including the question text, image alt text, and form fields) with NVDA, but JAWS could not access any text other than the headings and this was only when the Headings dialog box was specifically called up. From the dialog box, could jump to a selected heading, but could not get JAWS to read the text below each heading, and could not access the image. If navigating via the Headings dialog box, could Tab to a form field if navigating via the Headings dialog box, but without access to the text above the form field as instruction, unable to know what to type in the field.
