Hi all,
Using jaws 17, windows 10, and firefox 49.1.
I finally got how to add a bookmark and delete a bookmark in firefox, 
and as usual, wrote that down, and put it into my computer notebook folder.
Here's the problem, with firefox 21 and later, they use a media codec on 
your computer, and when you click on a download link for an mp3 file, 
the file plays, and it dowsn't download.
I have been all over the web and I got onto firefox help web pages.
one page said, to type about:config in the address bar, and then look 
for something that says windows media windows audio, and I did that, 
couldn't find it at all!
Then, I read a firefox support page that said to go to options, which I 
did, and found the list box, and down arrowed to applications. Then, the 
support page said to look for the file type, which in this case is .mp3, 
and then, find the application, and there is no file type list.
What a mess! They did not have this problem till they got the brilliant 
idea to make firefox 21 and later, play the file, and not download it.
So, you might as well stick with internet explorer for everything, 
except if you're going to listen to an audio stream that uses winamp.
This goes to show all of us that sometimes newer versions of programs 
are not better, and of course, we all know that, because I've heard many 
computer users tell me, exactly that.
At least I can download with internet explorer 11, with no problems.
