XHTML+Voice By Example

How to create simple voice-enabled web pages using XHTML+Voice. The first part of an introduction to X+V.

( Read the article )

By alip180 anchor Thursday, 12. April 2007, 07:37:00

avatarNone of the links ("Try it in action", "scripting X+V", etc) in the article XHTML+Voice By Example work. Could anybody fix this?

TIA

avatarThanks alip180 for posting this request. I visited today (9 days later) and it appears it still is not fixed.

I would like to use Opera TTS for an online course. So please, is there a response coming?

avatarjonny,

thanks to you for showing me how to get started.

i have been working on extending accessibility with voice. i have been developing a web site building application for building and maintaining an xhtml+voice and xhtml mp site. the application is running my site at http://voice.codebyjoe.com/.

those of you who are interested in developing with xhtml+voice may find the site educational as well if you take a look at the source code.

avatarLast year I was working on some web accessibility project and XHTML+Voice was a really great asset. Codebyjoe, thanks for the link, it's quite an interesting site!

By jonyellow anchor Sunday, 13. January 2008, 13:17:40

avatarQuite recently I had to prepare for my studies some work on XHTML+Voice and I took the liberty of presenting the codebyjoe's site. XHTML+Voice is a really great feature for accessibility issues and it is surely worth developing further on!

avatarjonyyellow,

I hope the site was working. I found two bugs a couple days ago a PHP error and a link that went to the old soon to be removed xhtml view of the site. My errors are logged and emailed to me in real time so i should have caught the PHP error every time it occurred.

I have been using the voice site as a sandbox. Now that its live i need to stop doing that. It's time for me to be more profession about the site.

I'll copy the voice site over to my development site. That way i can fix and break and unbreak things at the development site before moving them to the production site.

avatarNice site, codebyjoe. Soon we'll publish another article on XHTML+Voice from Mihai Sucan (a.k.a. ROBOd).

well maybe,

you need opera with voice added and turned on. then go to http://voice.codebyjoe.com/

the site has a voice interface so it talks to you and you can talk to it.
but you need the opera browser with voice added and turned on.

avatarcodeboy, I really enjoyed visiting your site, it really shows how great a feature XHTML+Voice is. I'm strongly in favour of supporting accessibility and therefore I find XHTML+Voice as one of the elements thet will become crucial in future.

That's encouraging, thanks. I think that the site is an example of some interesting ways to use X+V. I hope that it encourages more development.

I'm betting that the implementation of a voice interface will become a web accessibility standard.

avatarvery interesting site, i to am working on a voiceXML project to show how it can increase web accessibility as part of my degree.

avatarthank you codebyjoe for the hint ... i will take a look at it. sounds interesting.

avatarIt's a shame that the ENGLISH-speaking ENGLISH people have to say 'command' with an american accent to get the bloody thing to work though.

We say "CommaRnd", they say "CommaYnd".

avatarI was interested in the XHTML+Voice comments. I have been working on a speech project for web pages which adopts a different, and hopefuly novel, approach to accessibility. It uses a small exe program which runs in the background, this communicates with any flash .swf module on a web page. This in turn communicates with the containers javascript. The idea is to provide tools for developers to make the speech easy to create and easy to convert existing documents. My site is not quite finished, although the technical developers help is completed. I thought you might like to be the first to pass comment on the direction I'm taking. http://www.webng.com/speakfirst/

avatarDougiem - It seems a great site, but the silence is deafening. When do you propose to activate the site?

It is also not a great idea to use Microsoft's speech engine unless you want to speak like a Robot.

Here is site which may interest you:
