Hi Ginny, I think the problem is that as soon as you start navigating with VoiceOver, you can only navigate to places that VoiceOver will let you move to. It's possible to move your cursor in units of screen pixels if you turn Mouse Keys on and use key presses to move your mouse cursor, independent of where there are elements that VoiceOver recognizes. This is the typical way I deal with sites like Audible.com, where the sound samples for audiobooks can only be played using Flash. If there's a nearby marker that VoiceOver can recognize and move to, I start there and then move right or left by the correct number of screen pixels so that the flash player will activate when I click my trackpad at that position. However, if you simply use the regular VoiceOver interaction to start off with, I don't think you can use hot spots to track these locations. My guess would be that you lose the locations as soon as you start using VoiceOver, since VoiceOver itself doesn't have a way to recognize these spots.
(If you're interested in how to currently use Mouse Keys to move around and play the sound samples at the Audible.com site, see this recent post from the archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/macvisionaries%40googlegroups.com/msg11128.html (Re: Listening to Audible dot com samples) Cheers, Esther Ginny Owens wrote -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.
