Hi, Deb. Whenever I shop on the Albertsons website, I try to read my order
to see if it really went through but I get a message that says "you have
encountered a technical problem. Please close your browser and try again".
That's when I'm using Jaws. The weird thing is when I use system access to
go, I don't get that error message. Isn't that strange?

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.
