yes, discretionary would be a way to go. but there already are so many different keys used to signify many different elements, I'm left wondering what key they could use to signify the separator. they'll probably do it in a year or three.

We should have a way of silencing it if we want or at least a way of
navigating from one to the next as we can with headers, lists etc.

If you were using braille with JAWS, you'd have to read the line of
dashes that the separator actually is. Which would you prefer? It
actually does represent something that's really on the page.

Dan;

I've been following this thread as I also find the "separator" a
annoyance.
Glad to see someone is actually trying to get to the bottom of it.
Everyone
else seems to be flailing around with a bunch of SWAG.

Thanks,

Mike,

So, I've probably never even thought about the JAWS saying Separator
thing
before. But since you mentioned it, it is now bothering me. Thanks a
lot.

I've confirmed that JAWS is picking up the HTML tag, <HR>, and
substituting the word separator.  I can't find where it is making the
substitution though.  I've been grepping and reading through message
files, script files, dictionary files, no joy.  I thought I found an
index of HTML tags and their spoken counter-parts, but <HR> wasn't one
of them.

So, the hunt continues.
