Hi Paul,
The ITV Player always causes us people without sight a problem I'm afraid.
There are two things:-
When you have located the heading that says "Play Now" it is here where you
need to press enter. The programme you want to watch should then start to
play. However when you do this you might find that a box comes up asking
you to either sign in or register. It seems these days you can't watch a
programme on the ITV Player without doing this. Registering is completely
free they just ask for your email address, a password, your postcode I
think, and a couple of other questions (I can't remember them all off hand.
So, Find your programme again, locate the Play Now heading, press enter on
it and if nothing happens explore the page to make sure this box hasn't come
up. If it has then you will need to register. If not something else is
going on and we will need to try and work out what that is.
All the best,
Andrew

: Thanks frank.
:
: so, does it work when activated and also, waht does JAWS 14 say when you
are
: on the play button.
:
: This means I'l not only have to upgrade to a later version of JAWS BUT
: change my windows operating system and all because the site isn't fully
: accessible to blind and partially sighted people.
:
: They stil shouldn't have the play button embedded in an image.
:
: #Thanks again for getting back to me on this.

:: Hi all,
::
:: I have today contacted ITV as I stil have problems accessing the player
: when
:: wanting to watch a programme.
::
:: Acording to the person I spoke to today, the play buttoen is embedded in
: an
:: image.
::
:: This is of course totally useless to a blind person.
::
:: Now, I currenly use JAWS 12 btu am wondering how the play button appears
:: with a later version of JAWS.
::
:: So, if anyone on the list has anything above JAWS 12, could you please at
:: some point visit:
:: www.itv.com
::
:: Once on the sight, go to the ITV player, then enter on the a/z link and
: then
:: choose a programe and then select an episode of that programme by
clicking
:: the watch linkn and then finally arrow down until you hear JAWS saying:
:: heading level play now.
::
:: When I hit enter on this, nothing happened and the page merely seemed to
:: refresh.
::
:: Oddly enough, when trying to access the play now button with firefox 27,
: it
:: didn't appear to be there on the page.
::
:: I have asked someone from ITV to get back to me on this and i'm hoping
:: they'll do it, maybe Monday or sometime during the week.
::
:: I would be interested to know if the same problem happened with JAWS 13,
: 14
:: and 15 on both IE and firefox.
::
:: Also, just to say i'm using Ie8, so am wondering if the play now button
is
:: more acessible with later versions of IE.
::
:: your help with the above would be very much appreciated.
::
:: Thanks for reading.
