Hi all, sorry for the long subject line, but I'd like to know if there's a way, using either JAWS 9 or 10, to navigate a song using iTunes 8. I know the keystrokes, but they're used for table navigation. So I changed those keystrokes (PriorCell and NextCell respectively) to Windows+LeftArrow and Windows+RightArrow, again respectively. As a consequence, although I can navigate the song, JAWS is announcing the keystrokes I'm pressing. So I tried to create a script so that it passes the keystrokes to iTunes and thus allows me to navigate the song as well as shutting JAWS up lol. The problem is, I can't get the script to work! I tried several combinations, including enclosing the keystrokes in braces, using the TypeKey() function, to no avail. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated. I also hope this feature will be included in the upcoming full support for iTunes. Thanks in advance!
