Barbara, I can state my status on FaceBook but it is a pain.  I can hit post
and then it just sits there and then I have to hit tab until I get to
someone's name, hit enter there and then again with tab until I find the fb
link.  I will send a note to them and maybe, just maybe they will put things
back the way they were.  Thanks. V

I had found the link before and sent them an e-mail about it.  But since you

posted the link, I went and sent another, yet more clear and concise, e-mail

to them.
I've seen a few blind folks still able to post there--of what I can since it

only shows me the first few postings--so I don't know how they're able to do

it.  The big site is totally baffling and I've tried to post a status there 
but can't figure it out.
Thanks for posting this, Pipi, and I hope those who use facebook will 
definitely take the time to state their case also.
Barbara




Through the sunny fields of yesterday
Echo voices of children now grown,
Their golden peals of laughter
Ring upon the ivied stone.

hey Y'all,
Please forgive me for this off topic post, but with so many having problems,

I thought this, the easiest way to help all.
The mobile site is no longer working with Internet Explorer, but if you 
download and install FireFox, it will work there. It is a bit different 
layout, still having the same page links and such, but when you click them, 
they actually do something.
I have noticed that I have to refresh Jaws almost everytime that I click a 
link in firefox.
It's a pain, but still doable if you are one who uses fb a lot like I do.
Also, there is a way to submit a complaint about the recent changes to the 
fb mobile site. Maybe if enough of us do this, they will put things back the

way they were and fb will be decent again. The link to submit is:

I hope this helps some. Sorry window eyes users, I have no clue if the will 
fix it for you.

Pipi
