Hi list, ken here was trying to get weather and any zip code I try it says, weather searched for... and got no results.  I double checked to make sure I was still online by starting my playroom client and I had just come off of facebook so it wasn’t that.  it doesn’t find any results for any zip code.  any reason why?

Using Windows 7 and JAWS 17, ResearchIt works fine for weather here.

When I tried it, it was like I did not - nothing happened.

Bye for now,

Sounds like something changed on the weather site that FS was using for data. Nothing we can do about this, except let FS know so they can create yet another workaround. Any time that the underlying web page makes a significant change to its layout or API it can break ResearchIt. I think sports sites like MLB are still broken.

well; when trying to get the weather through research it,
Weather searched for k7k 5v2 and got no results.

Press ESCAPE to close Results Viewer.

obviously, something has changed on the web site,
I think the research it feature is a real waste of time.
the research it hasn’t worked with mlb for a long time.
anyway, there’s other ways.

Hi yeah on the sports links, FS says that it was their contract with ESPN. they were looking for reupping the contract or possibly finding another source. that was a couple months ago. I had to uninstall jaws and reinstall an update cleanly. that was around the time of the last update in jaws17.

hi:
well, if that was or is still the case, why, then, is NHL hockey not affected?
that comes from ESPN, also.
you would think all ESPN scores would be on the same contract, wouldn't you?
