Hmm, maybe, as JAWS will no longer detect the site's in Spanish.

OK.  But, if I go to an actual Spanish website, do I have to turn it on
again?  In other words, will I have to keep turning it on and off all the
time now?
And, why did this all of a sudden happen?

Try turning off language detection in Configuration Manager.

Hi there,



I feel like I always have the strangest or weirdest questions regarding
JAWS
and my computer, but here goes.



I'm on facebook and have had no real problems with it when I use either
the
mobile or the normal site on my laptop computer.  I have JFW Version 10,
and
everything was working fine until late last week.  I figured this would be
temporary, so I left it alone for a few days, but now it is annoying.



I go to the mobile site, and everything is fine.

However, when I go to the regular facebook.com site, it loads up OK, but
the
JAWS eloquence voice thinks it is reading Spanish and begins reading in a
Latin American Spanish accent.  I know Spanish, so that's how I was able
to
figure this out.



How can I fix this issue?  It doesn't do that anywhere else.  When I tried
on my netbook, it went to the facebook site and read it just fine.  No
problem there.



Thoughts?

Jim P
