Hi,
Why don't you use one configuration or script set for one account and one for 
the other? I'm not understanding what you are saying you're trying to do in 
your message. Sorry.

What would really be useful here is a kind of configuration file that's
within web standards somewhere that would hold a command to start a
browser and go to a specific url.  I'm interested in this since where I
work takes forever to get executables approved for use on the network.
If such a file existed and jaws could be made to recognize such a file
to the point where a jaws configuration file could be associated with
such a web configuration file which would first contain the settings for
the browser then contain any modifications needed to service the web
application to which the url in the web configuration file refers and
jaws could be made to not over write the web configuration file's jaws
configuration with the configuration of the browser then to the extent
jaws could be configured otherwise it would be possible to have a small
non-executable web application configuration file on a local hard drive
for each web application a user was expected to use each with their own
associated jaws configuration files.  That would make it possible to do
customized configurations for web applications and keep them unique and
separate and settings would not collide.  My computer was configured for
E.R.P. timecard access earlier and when using the same account for other
web accesses I noticed seriously degraded performance on what were
previously perfectly good web pages.  Earlier this week, that
configuration was reverted back to jaws defaults and the web browsing on
that same account for other sites got back to as good as it was earlier.
Because I'm a programmer, I have two accounts but most jaws users are
not programmers and will never have an additional programmer's account
due to cost considerations.  For them with single accounts such a
solution might have even larger beneficial impacts.  For me, one of my
accounts can be configured for E.R.P. and the other one left alone and I
ought to be all right from that point on, but this solution won't work
for the majority of jaws users.

Hi,
If you reference an application in the form tag or through the query
string of a <a> tag, you can execute it. Is that the kind of thing
you're talking about? I also know that if you're using server-side
includes that you can use an exec tag, but this, according to my memory,
is frowned upon.

Do any of the html or xml standards have a tag in them for web
application which is expected to be in a support file not anything like
an executable?
