[jaws-uk] Re: sounds in web pages

If the sound is coming from Flash and you're using Firefox you could use
the FlashMute extension at http://www.indev.no/?p=projects#flashmute
which lets you mute and unute the sound generated by Flash and some
other Browser sounds on the fly.  The advantage over the jaws filter
Flash function is that with Flashmute you can still interact with the
flash object, read the content etc.

hi all

when i visit certain websites that have music and videos on them i seem
unable to get jaws to stop playing the music so i can hear the text.
i've gone in to internet options advanced and set sounds to be played on
web sites to off but i'm still getting the music and hitting escape
doesn't shut it up either, has anyone any ideas?
