Overriding JAWS keystroke Assignment
Jan 02, 2018
I have my HTML 5 Storyline output uploaded to our LMS and working well with JAWS screen reader.
The user can move through a slide in a coherent order with the Tab key. They can also move between slides using '<' '>' keys. Also, they can play and pause a slide using '\'.
But pressing these keys ALSO makes JAWS readout what they are EVERY TIME - Backslash, comma and fullstop.
This page suggests I can write a .jss script file to override this JAWS command (Application-specific script file):
But this Application-specific script can only load when an application loads. A storyline output sat on an LMS doesn't class as an application, I don't believe.
Does the community know of another way round getting a customer to override default JAWS reader scripts? Is it just a matter of writting the script file and sending it to them separately, hoping IT with them will know how to make it work?

OK, I've found the SharePointWeb test script now.
Just struggling to make it work. But this is a JAWS issue and they don't appear to have any forums :-(
