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
