Will the NFB Newsline website have listings for your area?
I use www.titantv.com for my TV listings. It is very customizable and
displays the time grid in a true HTML table. This allows you to navigate
using the JAWS table navigation hotkeys. In general, they are Alt + Control
+ Arrow keys. It can be set to view up to 6 hours at a time.
I have a DirecTV DVR which can be programmed from a website. I have written
JAWS scripts to make it easier to go through the TitanTV listings.
Basically, it provides a table navigation mode that allows just using the
arrow keys to move around like a spreadsheet. The time and channel titles
are announced as you move through the table. Then with a hotkey, it will
start the DirecTV website and perform a search for the show you are on so it
can easily be recorded.
I realize not many people have DirecTV, but I use the table mode a lot on
large HTML tables on many sites. My scripts are at:

substance, value, and content that I just try to make sure that I am working
on things that matter.

My problem with NFB Newsline is that ours will discontinue on October 1.
This has been the only place I can get accessible listings, and it was
available by phone so I called and used it a lot. But with it
discontinuing in my area, I wonder if they'll at least have it available
to everyone online. It's just so hard to find a good TV guide online, so
I understand this frustration and welcome all ideas.

I use nfb newsline web news on demmand. They have a tv listings
section. Once you set up all of your information, it is extremely
easy to use.
