color:#1F497D'>Wow. Is this ever typical of the “for charge only”
support that nuance (not to be confused with the fondly remembered Brian’s
nuonce) is reputed to provide for its products like dragon and paperport (check
amazon reviews for their products and you’ll see lots of other similar
opinions). I think I can safely say it has NOTHING to do with the web server.
Period.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

color:#1F497D'>SAPI only matters for local applications – like the web
browser. Have they tried another web browser with dragon to see if it magically
works? It’s been a while since I used dragon, but then support was only
in certain specific applications that supported sapi. In those that did not
fully support it, only entry or deletion were enabled in most cases. But it’s
been a while.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

color:#1F497D'>The ONLY web site reason I could thing this might not work with
Dragon would be ajax/javascript being used to process each character of the
field as it’s typed, changing it (even to the same thing) out from under
Dragon. An example of this would be the rich editing javascript editing
applications which are used in wordpress and a number of CMS’s which use
some fancy DOM coding to rewrite the page source to turn a textarea into a
iframe with word-like editing capability (nice bold, italics, etc. buttons).
The HTML coding guide makes it clear this is treated as a “nonstandard
window”.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

fine. If it’s fancy wysiwyg text field, not so much. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

doesn’t have sapi integration. It does not do the correction to the text

<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Off the wall question. <o:p></o:p></p>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal>I have a customer that created a PHP website that uses a
text area and he uses Dragon Dictate to populate that field. This works
except for the ability to use the programs correction functions. <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal><span class=apple-style-span><i><span style='font-size:9.0pt'>This
relies on something called Select & Say. He posted a question to one
of the Dragon help lists and was told "Unfortunately, the developers who
designed your HTML application chose to ignore standard SAPI (Microsoft speech
application program interface) coding, which unfortunately is a fairly common
practice.</span></i></span>" He is looking to me for advise, but I
unfamiliar with this standard. <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal>I researched SAPI but appears to be for local applications,
not web apps. I see that there are SAPI modules available for PHP but has
anyone tried them in BO? <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal>Anyone have any experience with making fully "select
and say" compatible web applications on BO, or have any suggestions I can
pass to my customer? <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class=MsoNormal>Dragon support also told him <span class=apple-style-span><span
style='font-size:9.0pt'>"<i>Contact the developers to see if they are
receptive to this recommendation because eventually every application will need
to be SAPI compliant in order to be competitive." </i>He is the
developer, but they are pointing that since this is not a windows box......
that is what is causing his problems and he should switch to a Windows
provider. Yuck</span></span><o:p></o:p></p>
