A very simple solution. I figured there was but just overlooked it.
If you want to read those little balloon things, you just need to set
your user verbocity settings so your graphics are recognized by mouse
over text and not alt text which is the default. Sorry to ask and
then find the solution myself but maybe this helps someone else :).

TJ,
Thanks for that suggestion. I've created frames before and that
might work yes. I don't mean this antagonistically but I did try
another screen reader and when I popped up that address I gave, I
heard it pop open that balloon and speak it right after the title
bar of the browser without having to do anything. I say that to
say I'd bet there is a way for Jaws to read those without extra
programming. The frame idea is a good one though and perhaps that
will be the way it will need to be.

Hello Brad,
One approach to your read balloon hotkey might be to build a
frame to speak.
It would require that the text or balloon that appears would
have to appear in a similar part of the screen every time. You
could then create a frame to read that area of the screen and use
a hotkey to read the frame.
I have not created a frame in a while, but if I remember
correctly it is not to difficult.
Especially if you are going to call tech support anyway, you
could have them or some one else to help you create the frame.
Just a thought
TJ

The greater danger for most of us is not that our aim is too high
and we miss it,
but that it is too low and we reach it
