Hi Andrew - no, neither can I, but he might be using a later version of JFW 
where this is the case. I hate it when people say "it definitely works" just 
because it does for them. In your case, and mine too, it definitely does not, 
but you have JFW 8 with XP, and I have JFW9 with Vista, so who knows. I'm going 
to look more in to Ibrahim's thinking regarding Flash, but as I can play other 
flash links, I'm not too sure it's the answer -

  Hi Andy

  Did you see the message from Ian telling us to use the button that jaws 
announces as 'undefined' - can you find this button on the audible site, 
because I can not?

  Best regards

  Andrew

    Hi Ibrahim -

    I've already written to Audible, at least they now have a very strait 
forward way to email them.

    I've got flash on here,, but it isn't working on that Sample flash button 
on their website. You said to check if it were properly installed, how would I 
do this please? -

      Hi.

      I’m not a fan of the new audible site either to be honest, but needs must 
if we are to continue to access the latest audio books as they hit the shelves, 
not when RNIB decide to publish them if they do at all that is.

      Right, the sample button is now a flash object, so to interact with it, 
find the sample button below the book you want to hear the sample for and hit 
the enter or space key.  That should play the sample and if it doesn’t, you 
need to check that you have flash properly installed and working on your 
machine.

      All the best, Ibrahim.

      Yes, I discovered this today too. They've revamped the website, and now 
all JFW sees is the word sample, but doesn't see it as a link. The American 
site had this as an issue a few years ago, I'm both surprised and disappointed 
that the UK site has gone the same way. I haven't got an answer for getting 
round it.

      I think it very important that we contact them to get this put right as 
quickly as possible -

        Hi all

        I can not get the sample for any book to play on the audible.co.uk 
site. Is anyone else having  a problem?

        Kind regards

        Andrew
