[Electronics-talk] Advancing on Amazon

I shop on Amazon almost everyday, and use Jaws. I have found lately
that Internet Explorer and Jaws do not work on some links and buttons.
I actually have been using Firefox for almost everything, and it seems
to work much better. With shopping websites, there is a lot of change,
and I would suggest exploring the sites with tabs and also with your
arrow keys, as well as headings. When you get to how they are laid
out, you can jump around much faster. Also I use the find command a
lot to find my items in my cart, when I want to edit, and Find the
words cart to get to the link to edit my cart, and checkout, an so
forth. Both Audible and Amazon do have the accessible sites for
supposedly easier access. I find that this is true at Audible, but not
so much on Amazon, because I can use my headings key to look through
my search results much quicker.
Hope this helps. About their Amazon app, it used to be great, but now
I do not like it at all.
