Hi everyone,
I've got a question. I'm using this program called NfReader to read my rss feeds. The problem is this. This program has a tree view with all the feeds, and then if you tab there's a list with all the items on that feed. Whenever you switch to an item, there's a read only edit that updates with the information on that item.
example
Tree view the portable freeware collection latest updates
List view: update NfReader v2.00
Read_only edit: this program allows you to...
what I wanted jaws to do is to read the read only edit automatically. Is there a way to do that?
Thanks in advance.

If you already know JAWS scripting, you could do that with a newTextEvent() function. I wouldn't be able to help much more unless I were to play with NF Reader a bit first.

Interesting, I'll go and investigate. And no, I don't know much jaws scripting, but I can do it. I can just learn, like everyone else has. :P
