For a JAWS script set to be notified of all MSAA events, I think the following setting needs to be part of the application.jcf file: [options] msaamode=3 You can learn what MSAA events are being raised by defining event handler functions with the appropriate names and parameters. Code to do this is available in ScriptTemplate.jss, which is part of the archive at http://EmpowermentZone.com/ScriptTemplate.zip Hope this helps, Jamal -----Original Message----- From: jawsscripts-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:jawsscripts-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Mark A.

My application at times needs to tell jaws to read it's full content, similar to loading a new page in IE. From flash/flex I can send just about any MSAA event. My question is is there a way in a jaws script to capture any MSAA event and do something. Or can you only use certain events that jaws is listening for. I have another case where I display a kindof dialog. I was going to send the DIALOG_START event, but I'm not sure where I would deal with that in my jawscript. Any insight on doing custom things like this would be appreciated. There doesn't seem to be a lot of info out there except in this forum. Thanks. ________________________________ From: Mark A.

I read in another post that you can do something like this. Let n = obj.accChildCount And then from 1 to n do Let o = obj(number) However, when I do this, o does not seem to contain anything. I looked at other uses of .accChildCount and in other places it seems that they assume childIDs are integers from 1 to n, but in my case that's not true. Is there a way to access the children objects just based on their position in the list? __________ Visit and contribute to The JAWS Script Repository http://jawsscripts.com View the list's information and change your settings at //www.freelists.org/list/jawsscripts __________ Visit and contribute to The JAWS Script Repository http://jawsscripts.com View the list's information and change your settings at //www.freelists.org/list/jawsscripts
