Hi All,
Well, we've had all kinds of discussion about how Jaws will just quit reading
when in say all mode in outlook express. I've maximized the window, I've
started reading from the top... I've done all the tricks I can think of, and
Jaws still stops reading. I was looking to see if there is anything that may
trigger Jaws to just stop reading for no reason, and I've noticed something.
It seems to me that the thing that causes Jaws to get hung up while reading are
blank lines. I was reading an article from our local paper that I had copied
and pasted into an E-mail for a friend. As I read the article in outlook, it
would just stop reading. So, I started to look at what might be around the
area
where it stops reading. The one constant was that the place that it stopped
was
right above a blank line. so, I would arrow down past that blank line and do
the say all mode again. Then it would just stop. You guessed it, another
blank
line. so, when there is double spacing in E-mails, it seems that Jaws will
not
ignore the blank lines and keep reading right through.
I'm not sure that this is the only reason Jaws stops reading in mid stream, but
it seems to be one of them. Jack
