Gene it’s a way to get to the pertant INFO say in an article. It’s a bear to find the beginning of a news article a lot of the time. Like I said before pages content are always changing so I feel this not effective. Adds are everywhere. We just got to find a happy medium to filter out all the clutter. The more I visit sites like: www.wnd.com etc. the worse it gets.

They may be of different sizes, and I wouldn't assume they will remain on the same exact part of the page. I don't ever recall Flexible Web described as a way to skip ads.

I don’t know if the Jaws Flexible Web main purpose is to work as an add blocker. I use it to filter out/block elements like in forums (Reddit for example) and other sites/domains where things are pretty constant and just the simple structure of the site is a bit too cluttered for me. Cristóbal

Way worse Bryan. I can attest to this. This is a far better solution than JAW’s Flexible Web. I mean pages regardless of being a news site or not are constantly changing so to me this type of thing they are doing is ineffective IMHO. So don’t get any bright ideas NVDA add-on devs on here. Said add-on should do it no matter what screen reader you use.

Simple answer: yes. It essentially wipes out all online ads anywhere they occur. As new ones pop up the set of definitions gets updated very quickly and most of us never see them.
