Paul,

I have no problem reading the number with the PC cursor.  (I have screen 
track virtual cursor checked, meaning that what's on the screen is also 
following the virtual cursor.)  I think at this stage it would be hhelpful 
if others hlet the list know if they encounter problems (or have no 
problems) when reading the page, particularly the telephone number(s) in the 
returned results.  .  If it's relevant, and it may be, braille comes up 
before speech does here, when I initiate the page.  (I think the page may be 
loading images or something, so JAWS is like biding its time until loading 
has completed.)  In brief, there appears to be something funky going on; but 
however it doesn't prevent me from hearing JAWS as normal with PC cursor 
reading the information returned in the results.  Do you use screen 
magnification software as well?  If so, though I cannot ascertain it, there 
may be other sites where you would have this issue.

Thanks flor, that is what I really do, but only the jaws cursor will
read the telephone number, the pc cursor will read the name and address
of the customers phone book entry,
Is this the same for you?
Cheers
paul

Hi Paul,

Try starting from

http://www.eircomphonebook.ie/displayhome.ds;jsessionid=5A794224FA90C1ED
7D9D52B162ED456B

The page is titled: Eircom phonebook online: residential and business
name search directory for ireland

(You'll want to check which radiobutton for your choice - home or
business.
With later versions of JAWS, you can do this outside of Forms Mode by
typing r and then selecting your choice.  You can then fill in the "who
are you looking for?" box and the following one, entering forns Mode.
(Giving first or full name as well should narrow down the results.)  In
the list of results, the name and the phone number are given and read
for me by JAWS - JAWS10 and previous versions I've had.  (The page may
take a while to load properly. Possibly there are pop-ups being
blocked.)
