Subject: [AI] Thoughts On Flexable Web In Jaws 14 Beta 2
Dear friends, as you are well aware that freedomscientific is about to
release jaws 14 beta 2 with in the metter of 1 or 2 days.
Before that release, I have decided to share with you some thoughts about
jaws 14 Beta 2, so you can use it in a better envirnament. I sincierely
hope that after reading this artical you will be able to use that jaws
more effeciently.
In
Episode 70
of its monthly FSCast, Freedom Scientific announced the upcoming JAWS 14
feature "Flexible Web". I happen to think this is a real breakthrough in
making
the web user experience more intuitive for people. Please note that all
the information I am about to discuss is already in the public domain
through FSCast.
Flexible Web will allow a JAWS user to:
list of 2 items
. Hide content on a web page which may interrupt the reading experience.
Many sites now contain Google Ad Frames or Links to social networking
tools such
as Facebook and Twitter, allowing people to share a page with these sites.
If placed in the middle of an article or news story for example, these
Links
and Frames can interrupt the flow of something interesting being read.
. Start reading at, (or set focus to), a designated point on a web page.
Two basic examples would be as follows. When you carry out a Google
search, instruct
JAWS to start reading where the search results appear, bypassing the other
content at the head of the page. Alternatively, when activating a Link to
read
more about a book on Audible.com, set JAWS to go straight to the summary
so as to decide whether you would like to purchase it. Focus can also be
set to
other elements, such as Edit Fields, ARIA regions and Links.
list end
These two features are governed by an intuitive Wizard which steps you
through the process with helpful information along the way. You can create
a "temporary
customisation" initially, and if you decide you want to apply it you can
create a permanent rule. The rules can contain a combination of
"behaviours",
such as to ignore content and start reading at a designated location.
Options in the Wizard allow you to rename, edit and delete rules. Rules
can be applied
to all sites or to an individual one.
I really would advise you to listen to the FSCast on this subject.
Jonathan Mosen does a first-class job of demonstrating all the options
within Flexible
Web.
One thing I learned from the podcast was that if you choose to hide
content using Flexible Web, this also applies to MAGic if you have it
running alongside
JAWS. So as people are working their way through web pages, the visual
focus tracks alongside JAWS. That is very cool indeed.
Not only do I think this will improve the browsing experience for people
tremendously, but it will also add useful functionality for those using
browser-based
applications in the workplace. Together with Placemarkers and Custom
Labels, Flexible Web will undoubtedly ensure people have the tools to
become more
efficient within the course of their work duties. JAWS does stand for "Job
Access With Speech" after all!
When JAWS is officially released containing Flexible Web, there will be a
number of ways you can get help to use it.
You can use the Context Sensitive Help already built into the Flexible Web
wizard to give you useful guidance on how to use it.
You can take advantage of a webinar to be hosted by the Freedom Scientific
Training department
on 24 October.
will remotely train anyone anywhere in the world on any aspect of using
JAWS for 40 pounds per hour. This training is
reinforced by the provision of documentation to support it. Note that this
does not mean we will attend site but it is remote training using JAWS
Tandem
or similar software. For more information, please write to
[email protected]
In summary, the introduction of Flexible Web just demonstrates why JAWS is
a fantastic screen-reader. Using Flexible Web, Placemarkers and Custom
Labels,
Freedom Scientific really do give blind people excellent control of web
pages, allowing people to find and read what they want very quickly. I
wish them
the very best of luck with this new feature.
Friendship florishes at the fountain of forgiveness.
