I used the web site http://www.xmradio.com as a test and ran both screen readers. I tried to use NVDA first. On that web site you will need to choose "Full Channel Line Up" to experience the same situation.
With Jaws and NVDA , the speech quit almost immediately. As I mentioned in an earlier message, I believe that the problem exists in the fact that there are Flash links all over this page. Jaws and NVDA both got jammed up by these links and quit entirely. There was literally no way to get them back and I tried everything. Next, I took System Access To Go for a spin and what do you know, it worked! For some reason, I'm still not sure why, SA read the links but did not get hung up. On our list is a member called Debbie. She mentioned a web site provided by ABC, http://www.abc.com and I think that this site has the same problems as the newly designed XM Radio page does. CONCLUSION: For some limited purposes, System Access, although it's a very limited tool, will work where Jaws and NVDA do not. I thought some of the people here might find this interesting.
