Point well taken. I had a related experience earlier this week. Unable to read 
the content of a certain window, I was flummoxed until I remembered I’d turned 
off in-line frames. Regrettably, turning them back on didn’t solve the problem, 
which remains an unsolved mystery.

I want to issue a warning about turning off in-line frames.  I suggest that you 
only do so in the Personalize Web Settings section of the Quick Settings Tree 
View.  Otherwise you may be turning off this option for all web pages which is 
not such a good idea, as I found out the hard way.  There can sometimes be 
important information in those frames.

I tried checking into my local bank's web page early this week and couldn't 
find the log-in form.  I called the bank to see if they had a problem.  Well, 
it turned out that it was me that had a problem, and it was of my own making.  
Their log-in form was in a frame, and when I turned off in-line frames, it 
disappeared.

Since my other screen readers still detected the frame containing the form, I 
knew that JAWS was at fault.  After thinking about changes I had made to JAWS 
recently, I had the clue to the mystery.

Here is what I have done so far to help in reading NYT articles:

1. I have set a placemarker tagged to the text “Share this Page”. Thus in 
articles I can hit K then N to get to the start of most articles (may have to 
repeat sometimes).
2. Thanks to help from Adrian I have turned automatic refresh to off.
3. I have turned in-line frames off.

Are there other settings or tricks to make article reading in NYT have a more 
uninterrupted flow?
