online banking with Bank of America: not quite accessible enough

[Cheryl Homiak]

Here's what I just got when I tried to sign in to online banking. it's a
little puzzling because I am using ssl, and I though that met the
encryption requirements.
This was with lynx the cat. with links the chain it was even worse; I
never even
got to try to log in because where it said to sign in after I put in my id
and passcode, links the chain had no link (pun intended).
Am I missing something on the site or has anybody using online banking
been doing it with Windows? Ironically, the application process is
accessible. It really won't ruin banking for me at Bank of america, as I
can use the phone and I'm getting my braille statements etc., but it is
disappointing.

What I got at attempt to log in with lynx the cat:
