[stylist] electronic books

[Julie J.]

I'm using JAWS 12 and it works.  I haven't tried in Safari.  I'm wondering 
if it isn't a browser and screen reader issue, rather than the web site 
specifically.  I'm not all that technically inclined though.

Hi all!
I found through my own experiences that it isn't compadible with vertions of 
my software. When I tried it, I couldn't get safari to open up the PPP up 
buttons, neither could I with JAWS 9.0 on a PC laptop running Windows XP. 
Does Audible have compatibility issues that I don't know about?
