I discovered something that might be helpful to those who have set a default. I
have better luck if I download from the title page, rather than going to the
book information page. If I go to the book information page by pressing enter
on the title, and try to download from there, the download selection seems to
mess up. But if I choose download from the first title page, it is okay. I
always get brf and never anything else. In other words, the combo box doesn’t
open.
Hope that helps,
Sue S.

Hi,
Well Rodger, I'll have to try that. However, if the closed combo box shows brf
then that is the value that should be honored. That is how this kind of
control has worked for many years. It is something about the way Bookshare is
implementing it that is working differently.
Thanks.

Your problem is that you closed the combo box right after you chose Brf.
Instead of closing it start tabbing. Each time you get to another combo box or
other kind of choice select the one that you want and then when you get to the
download link or the okay button or however it is worded click that too. I
agree that it does not seem to be simpler or better as we were told that it
would be, but it is doable if you have a little patience.

Hi,
This is going to support as well as the list.
I just tried to download a single book. I very carefully opened the combo
box and chose brf as the format. I closed the combo box.
I switched out of the window and back again to make sure the page had
updated. It still showed brf as the download format so I clicked on the
download button.
It went to my history page and is now showing that it is preparing it in MP3
format again.
This is getting really frustrating. And, no I do not want to set brf as my
default download format. If a list of formats is going to be offered then the
user's choice should be honored.
Please fix this problem. Now I have to wait for the MP3 formatter to
complete before I can go choose brf and try to download again.
