I'm still trying to find the best way to deal with sites like CNET which
automatically launch audio/video on their pages.
First of all, can anyone tell me what is being used to play these
things? I don't think it's Flash. Is it javascript or something else?
Someone enlightened me to the fact that control-m will stop playback in
Firefox. Is Firefox the only browser that offers this option? Can
playback be stopped in either Chrome or IE?
Finally, is there anything in any of the browsers' settings that will
block this background media? I saw something in IE that *might* do it,
but I'm not sure. I couldn't find anything in either Firefox or Chrome
that seemed to have anything to do with this.
If it matters, I'm running JAWS 18 on Windows 10 Anniversary Home
edition with the latest versions of all 3 browsers mentioned.
Thanks,
Jeff
