No previous message | Next message →
Hi Everyone --
My reader has been having trouble getting text from pages that employ
javascript based "copy protection" i.e disabling selection events, right
click menus and cut and paste key combos and the like. Does anyone know
how to get around such things without disabing scripting entirely. If
needed I can provide examples of the offending javascript.
Thanks
Matt

What do you mean by "my reader"?

Hi --
I use a text to speech program it's not a full screen reader. I
highlight the text i want to hear read aloud, and it passes it to a speech
synthizer, also magnifies it in a seperate window. It's a custom program,
I couldn't find anything that worked well and was cross platform meaning
worked on about a half dozen different unix varients/odd hardware, i use
for work and school. But I'm told it is somewhat like Kurzweil or Read and
Write Gold. Only it works on an SH4 running NetBsd and takes it's User
Interface Design cues from vi
