Hi Listers, For years I read the CVS weekly ad online with Jaws. Then, several weeks ago, I suddenly couldn't figure out how to get it anymore. CVS actually has a little blurb about accessing the ad using Jaws which I will paste below. I'm using Jaws 10, believe I have the required scripts installed, and have the most recent flash update. Has anyone tried to read the CVS ad recently with or without success? Any idea if I'm doing something wrong? Thank you - Shari - Now here's the info from the CVS site:
