Hi, Madison,

Yes you can send messages, but I don't use the regular Facebook site.

I find that with Google, the best site is the mbasic.facebook.com.

You go to Messages, then New Message, then Select Friend, then you will see
a list of about fifteen friends with a Show More button below them all.
When you find the friend you want, just enter on their link, and a new
message appears with their name in the To field.

If you want to message several at once, just keep adding friends, then hit
the Done button at the bottom of the list.

Hi all,
I was just wondering, is there anyone on this list who uses Facebook on
their PC? If so, are you able to send messages to people on Facebook? If so,
how do you do it? The reason that I ask is because I can't send people
messages using Facebook. Every time I try, when I start typing Jaws just
jumps to some other randome spot on the page and it's really annoying. There
are people that I really want to send messages to, but I can't, and it's
driving me nuts. My mom (who's sighted and uses Facebook all the time) has
tried to help me several times but she can't figure it out. She said that it
looks like I'm logged in so that's not the problem. It's really starting to
frustrate me. When I first got Facebook I was able to send messages and
comment on other people's posts but now I can't do either. Being able to
send people messages to people is way more important to me then being able
to comment on people's posts. I'm using Jaws 15 and Internet Explorer 11. I
really hope that there's someone on this list who can help me, as this is
driving me absolutely crazy. Look forward to hearing back from anyone who
can help me!! Thank you, 
Madison
