One way round this is to see if the programme is available on the STV player. 
the address is www.stv.tv/player/. The adult content button works with JAWS on 
this site.

Subject: [access-uk] ITV player - parental control buttons not working with jaws

Hi,

I am trying to watch programmes on the ITV player which have an adult content 
and require the "I am over 18 allow all adult material" button to be pressed 
etc.
The button doesn't appear to work using Jaws 11,or 13, I've tried it on my XP 
pc and on my new Windows 7 pc. Has anyone come across a solution to this 
problem, apart from getting a sighted person to click on the button with the 
mouse.
If I try to use the jaws cursor I can't find the line containing the button, 
the screen only shows the "you must select a button to continue" text, i 
presume jaws is not finding the relevant part of the web page in jaws cursor 
mode.
Is there any way I can locate the control in jaws cursor mode using some kind 
of override command I presume it is being trapped in some kind of active pop up 
window.

I can't believe I am the only person suffering from this very frustrating 
problem.

any help gratefully received.

Thanks

Gary
