You need to have flash enabled, as the page has a lot of that. the buttons are then read by JAWS. there is the Play/pause button which does what it says. The timeline button allows you to jump by percentage increments, the percentage being of the programme's length. There is also a volume adjust button, and an Adobe Flash popout button. You didn't say which version of JAWS you're using.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] Website problem, New BBC iPlayer


Good day,
Has anyone come across the new (and supposedly improved) iPlayer that the BBC uses to play their radio shows online? The "old" one uploaded and showed a simple consol that was easy for Jaws to navigate. This new one is displaying a page filled with links, graphics and text. I had someone sighted take a look and the vital buttons are still there, and have the same labels: play/pause, volume and timeline, but Jaws can't find/see them with either cursor. Could this possibly be a Jaws setting I need to change? Or is there a work around that will let me find them? Because not being able to hit pause during a three hour show is a real problem.

If anyone has any help or suggestions to offer I'd be very appreciative,
Yours sincerely,
Joy
