--- Comment #132 from Katrin Fischer <katrin.fischer at bsz-bw.de> ---
I was worried that these changes might have an impact on accessibility and
asked one of our libraries with a blind staff member to test this on a sandbox.

The test has turned up 2 major problems for her:

1) In IE checking out books is broken. Under some circumstances, if you
checkout a book, it won't show up on the patron account. If it happens, it
doesn't matter how often you reload the page or switch tabs or whatever, it
won't show up. The number of checkouts on top of the tab changes and is always
correct.  (Version: IE 9)

To test:
- Use IE.
- check out book
- check out a book that is checked out to someone else, confirm with yes
- Verify this book doesn't show up in the list of checkouts
- check out a book that is on hold for someone else, confirm with yes
> Check for each of those, if the list of checkouts is correctly displayed. For me, normal checkouts worked sometimes, but the other 2 cases never worked. Often things got stuck after the first successful checkout.

If you have an account with a wrong list of checkouts, try:
- Switching to the details tab and back to checkouts
- Shift/ctrl+reload
- Verify the list is still not correct.

Sometimes, when you go back to an account after having checked in all items,
the old checkouts still show up!

I know we are not officially supporting IE on the staff side, but I think this
problem is major enough that it really needs to be fixed. Also, switching
browsers is not an option for this library as there are existing problems in
using FF.

2) In IE and FF if you use keyboard shortcuts to move between the tabs, the
tables for holds and relative's checkouts are not loaded. All you see is the
table headers, but no contents. Only when you can click on the tab, the tables
are loaded. So if you don't have a mouse, you can't see the holds and
relative's checkouts. 

To test: 
- Click on the  "checkouts" tab, then use arrow keys to move between them.
- Verify that the relatives checkouts and holds tables don't display the
entries, but just the table header.
