I'm wondering if I missed something here.  You say FS dropped support for
Skype in JAWS 8.0, but I am not aware of FS ever having formally supported
Skype, in the sense of scripting for it, writing configurations for it, etc.
What support for Skype has been dropped in JAWS 8?

in my experience with 2.5, it's just as asccessible with jaws, as the

http://chris.thetestpattern.com/jfwskype/jfw-skr275.zip
beta scripts, work great wiith 2.5. They just need to be compiled again, so
after copy pasting hte files, just open them in script manager and alt f s.
I'm in a little bit of a hurry , but I hope this helps someone.
skype: serrebi2006 if you need help.
as a side note: skype 3.0 beta is a little bit of an accessible hurdle. THe
main skype download is fine, but unless you are good with a little
unaccessible progs, don't go looking for skype 3.x, as it doesn't work
perfectly even with the scripts. THey changed the interface, added skining,
etc etc, that's probably why skype support was dropped from jaws 8.0,
honestly I'm surprised no one brought this up yet... It prob needed more
work!
