[nfbcs] trying to figure out how to embed text-to-speach into a web site

Thu Dec 22 16:36:38 UTC 2016

I'm trying to create an on-line talking typing tutor program.  If the web
site uses TTS then the user doesn't have to worry about turning off quick
navigation keys or anything.  If JAWS or NVDA is used, some keys such as h
or shift h are used to move by different elements such as heading.

Hi,

Why would you want to do this when people have jfw/we and nvda is free?

Hello.  I'm trying to embed text-to-speech into a web site.  Right now, I'm
trying to use the Responsive Voice library, but I'm open to other
suggestions.  To make sure I know how it works, I started out with the below
sample code.  Unfortunately, I don't hear any speech. The code is below.

<html>

<head>

<title>test of text to speach</title>

<script type="text/javascript"
src="http://code.responsivevoice.org/responsivevoice.js">

</script>

</head>

<body>

<p>This is the body.</p>

<script type="text/javascript">

responsiveVoice.setDefaultVoice("US English Female")

responsiveVoice.speak("I had a cat named Blanca.")

</script>

</body>

</html>
