Getting ReachDeck To Read Numbers Individually

Sometimes you might have a number on your website that you wish to be read out digit by digit instead of as a complete number.

For example if you had 73200125 on your webpage (it could be an account number), currently ReachDeck will read it as 7 billion, 3 million, 2 hundred thousand etc. instead of 7 3 2 0 0 1 2 5.

A workaround for this issue is to add a pron tag to the html e.g.

<span pron="7 3 2 0 0 1 2 5">73200125</span>

Will read as 'Seven, three' etc and not 'Seven billion, etc


A web developer or content editor will be required to implement this. This could be implemented in a server-side script when the web content is being generated, so all such numbers are spoken digit by digit.
