Thank you! I figured out part of that last night but the "gently" stop 
instructions help a lot. I do now get them all on Audible to play and stop all 
right. Do you have any notion as to why simply pressing space or enter with the 
focus on the button works for many of you but not for me? 

Thank you again,
Karen

  Put focus on the sample button, click with the right mouse button, which is 
numpad star, arrow down to "play" and press enter on that. To stop the audio 
gently, right mouse button on sample button again and enter on "rewind."

    Hi John,
    Thanks so much for your reply. I am totally at a loss. I've been uisng JAWS 
for a long time -- nearly 20 years. I followed your steps exactly. Flash 
recognize is on with the audible page loaded. Pressing B takes me to the button 
but neither space nor enter activates the button. Could another setting be 
interfering? 

    Karen

      While in Audible.com,
      1. press insert plus v
      2. type fl for flash movie recognize on
      3. if it is not, press space to set recognize on.
      4. press enter to save that setting.
      5. press b to find one or more flash buttons.
      6. when you reach the desired button, press space.
      I just tested this on Audible, and it worked.

        Hello,
        My name is Karen. If anyone can help with this question, I'd appreciate 
it.

        On a variety of web sites JAWS says:

        Flash Movie Start
        (button I want to activate)
        and then
        Flash Movie End

        My sighted husband can come in, use the mouse and click the button yet 
no matter how hard I try using virtual, PC and mouse cursor, I can't activate 
the button

        Examples of what I'm talking about:

        On Audible.com many of the book selections have "sample" button so that 
a small section of the book can be heard. These sample of book buttons are 
surrounded, according to JAWS with "Flash Movie Start" and :"Flash Movie End". 

        Anyone?

        Thank you.
