[NFBCS] Jumping website

If you just want to read the text of the page, you might be able to 
select all, copy and paste to Wordpad.
Going off line when the page is displayed might also help in some instances.
The page might stop renewing itself and perhaps you can navigate to the 
link you want to click.  If so, open that link off line.  In this way, 
you will be able to skip that page.  Then go on line again and renew the 
view of the new page on your browser.
I have tried this some times and I was able to navigate the pages, but 
every page is different.
This might not be the best solution, but I think it's a quick one.

It's possible to have a carousel that blind people can read that doesn't refresh over and over again in this annoying way. Another benefit is that if the site is using multiple slides, people using screen readers or keyboards can press a link for the next slide whenever they want it instead of having text refresh over and over again.

I found an accessible carousel with code samples for my co-worker to fix the one I had issues with on the W3C web site and they customized something after looking at that code.

I'm trying to read a bit about information security, and it keeps cycling through a list of people who work in the InfoSec group, interrupting what I'm trying to read. It doesn't move the Jaws focus, just constantly interrupts reading.
