Stan,
I too had tried the style-sheet solution with JAWS 6.1 and found it rarely
worked. However, I upgraded to JAWS 6.2 and it now works every time. I do
always have to start a blank IE page, do the Insert-V, set ignore style
sheets, then open nytimes.com. Once done I can get to all articles and
fully navigate back and forth. I still cannot select a NYTimes article
from the E-Mails they send me, but I scan these in the morning to decide
which sections I want to review (National, Business, etc.) and then use the
above process. I've gotten used to it and works fairly quickly and well.

Arianna and Yardbird: I have tried the style sheet solutions and find that they
work sometimes but not all the time. You are right, Arianna, the one thing that
works all the time is to unload jaws 6 and load up 5.
But I did not think I would see the problem pasted into the body of an email.
It surprised me.

I just unload JAWS 6.2 and start JAWS 5.10. Then I am able to access the NY Times.

Hi, Stan, why don't you ask your kind friend to just go to the printer friendly version of an article like that one, and then select and copy the page to the clipboard to paste into an email for you. That solves the entire problem for you. Of course you still can't do anything at the Times site until Jaws comes up with a fix for this problem, but it won't matter in a scenario like this, at least. This is what I ask sighted friends to do the past couple of weeks when I see an article, editorial or op ed headline and subhead in my morning New York Times update that I just can't resist.

Subject: nytimes.com crash - interesting twist
Friends: We had some threads about the conflict between jaws 6 and nytimes.com resulting in IE 6 crashing.
I thought this was an interesting twist. I opened IE 6 then decided to
check
email before browsing. so ie6 is running in the background. A friend sent
me
an email into which he had pasted a nytimes.com op-ed piece into the body
of
the email. As I read the piece in the email body, I hit a link to "skip to
next paragraph" and got the nytimes crash. When I said no to the report to
Microsoft question, I was able to read the rest of the piece in the email,
but when I tried to return to IE 6 which was running in background, it was
gone, having been closed by the crash.
Thought this was an interesting twist.
running jaws 6.1 and home xp sp2.
Stan
