JFW 12 with flash


Terra Syslo <tlsyslo@...>
 

Hi. I recently upgraded to the latest version of JFW, 12.0.1169. I am having
an annoying problem with a web site, and I hope maybe someone will have some
suggestions. I am trying to use slacker.com to create a radio station. In
JFW 12.0.522 the unlabeled buttons were spoken and I could activate them
with no problems. I need to be able to get to these buttons to add artists
or play stations. Unfortunately, I upgraded to the latest version of JFW,
and now the unlabeled buttons are not spoken any more. I used NVDA to see if
maybe something had changed on the slacker web page, and it has not. NVDA
will say clickable where the unlabeled buttons are, but I would like to be
able to use JFW. I no longer have the installer for the version I was
running before the upgrade, and it is no longer available on the fS web
site. Does anyone have any suggestions as to what else I can try? I am also
running the latest version of Adobe flash player 10.3, and I am using
Internet Explorer 8. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

actually it may well be there still, just hidden. not long ago I used this link to get a "no longer available" copy of an earlier jaws:
ftp://ftp.freedomscientific.com/users/hj/private/WebFiles/JAWS/J12.0.525-32bit.exe
remove the blank spot where the thing gets broken in the email(if it does) then modify the numbers and bit type to what you need and give it a try.

it was exceedingly amusing I got contacted by fs on a complaint I filed, and was told there was no fix, of course, I said I figured out as much and was there to urge them to get to fixing it, and that I had downloaded an earlier version from them and removed the latest and replaced it with it. and the tech said it was not there, I said oh hell its not!, he said it was not, I said try this link (the above URL) after a couple goads he did, and the next thing I hear is "what the..." (long silence) "where did you get this information?"

haha thanks for that link.
Now, how many tries before we guess an existing beta number and download something we shouldn't? I don't have the time to sit there trying and trying and trying, editing the URL a digit at a time, but perhaps someone can write a script or something.
