An additional suggestion, the iStore does behave similarly to a web page but
jaws doesn't function as smoothly in that frame as it does on a "real" web
page. If possible, it would be very useful to have a few of the jaws web
features in the iStore, such as control-arrow navigation and placemarking.

Yes, the iTunes interface with entering credit card info is a pain. I
experienced something similar when entering in info for the iTunes store to
purchase apps for my iTouch. That interface could use some attention. It is
much like a web application, but in a framed window. Kinda like Rhapsody's
web interface. Fortunately we can work with that as well. Pretty much all
aspects to iTunes is accessible for scripting.

I've heard although I can't remember what I've personally experienced in
itunes when registering a product, but I hear it's doable but could be more
accessible., I think also the itunes store needs some work and also entering
profile info and creditcard info also needs work.

ITunes is a good one. I know that some of it can't be accessed easily
without the jaws cursor. Definately an easier app to work with since they
are Microsoft accessibility access friendly. Plus I noticed that they leave
the JSS file open to scripters. Just in case we wanted to add to it. Give
your thoughts on what we want iTunes to do. I definately use iTunes myself
and it is a popular app. As far as the need, we still have to hear more
input from everyone. Good suggestion.

Hmmm... I would like to see scripts (free scripts if possible) for iTunes. I
downloaded the jTunes scripts (version 5.5) and I did not like them at all.
They did not added much to the party and there are some parts of iTunes that
since version 10.2.1 have become completely inaccessible. E.G. the iTunes
store.

 

 

Other program I would love to see a script being developed is for DVD fab
platnum. 

 

 

I am thinking of a couple, but I doubt there will be any interest among
blind persons, so I won't mention them. At least for now.

Subject: Coding for a new jaws accessible app

 

Hi folks,

As my 32nd birthday approaches, I think I am going to make a habit of
picking one new application per year to make jaws accessible. Picking
Rhapsody was not an easy task, but it taught me many things about an
application that seems next to impossible to make behave. I am taking off
this summer from school and will have the time to code a new application.
Rhapsody Blind was a test to see if I could pull it off, and it worked. I
selfishly chose the first one, now I'm looking for the popular vote on what
you might want. I probably won't start until this semester is over at the
end of May, so this gives plenty of time to decide. It would be a good idea
to chat among each other and find out what is needed or just plain want for
entertainment purposes. So, let's open up the floor and hear some
suggestions.

Thanks,

John Martyn
