Thanks Robert, I have also been having this problem in emails over a certain length, like the long fwd's that do the rounds. I take it we are all using virgin media broadband and if we all put a report in they may take notice, I won't hold my breath LOL

Date: Fri, 22 Jun 2007 11:59:26 +0100 Hi Pete,I have found a work around for your problem without you having to revert to demo of Window Eyes!When you have more than 30 tracks listed, you nee to switch to "use virtual PC Cursor Off" mode by pressing jaws + Z. Then tab until you hear 2, 3, next etc. Press enter on the desired link and then switch back to virtual PC cursor mode with jaws + Z once the page has loaded.It's not an ideal solution but better than nothing. It's certainly worth dropping a line to Virgin Digital pointing this out to them though.Cheers.

Hi Robert,Any well known artist will do, as long as they have more than 30 tracks listed, it is when browsing through the tracks that it will not recognise the links to continue to the next list of tracks.Regards, Pete H. ----- Original Message ----- From: Robert Winter To: jaws-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Friday, June 22, 2007 11:15 AM Subject: [jaws-uk] Re: How can I make JAWS recognise these links? Hi Pete,Can you give us an example of the artist you are searching for so we can try and simulate what you are experiencing. I have tried the site and have no problems with the search results. My specs are the same as well.Cheers.

Hi folks,I'm having an access problem with a website and would like some advice ...System: Windows XP Home, fully updated; JFW 8, latest version; Internet Explorer 7Website: http://www.virgindigital.co.ukThis is a music download site, but you don't have to register to search their database or listen to the sound samples, and all aspects of the site are fine, including registration and purchasing, but my difficulty is with browsing within pages.I select an artist in the normal way, and it comes up with the artist's albums and total number of tracks. If this number of tracks exceeds 30, JAWS will not allow me to continue to the next page by using the PC cursor, I have to go into jaws cursor and search about for the links, they appear in a row from left to right labelled Start, 1, 2 etc and finishing with Next. I can press the left mouse key on Next and it will take me to the next page, but why doesn't JFW recognise these as normal links, they don't appear in the links list either, but I am told that they look like normal links, and a demo copy of Window-Eyes which I use as a backup treats them normally, laying them out in a vertical column just like the links in a search engine.So what should I do? Should I contact Virgin Digital and tell them their browsing function is difficult to access, or should I ask Freedom Scientific why links that appear normal to a sighted user are not recognised by their program?Is there anything I can do to JFW to make it see these links as normal? I get the same result regardless of whether or not Flash is enabled.Regards, Pete H. http://www.therockery.net
