Nice. It works well for me. However, 2 questions. 1. How to I get the voice speaking again once it's been stopped? Selecting the text and V or right-click don't do it. The only way seemed to be to reload the page. 2. Where do all the extra voices come from? They're not available in Opera.
To arnie2: 1. Click on the needed content entry. 2. No such information.
I can't get any reading...does it work on macs?
