[humanser] jasws question

[James Brown]

Mary,

I'm assuming that there's not a link that says skip to main content on the 
page in which you are working.  There are many ways to do this, and each 
person has their own preference.  I'll give you my favorite.

When I have a place on the net where I go all the time, I use the jaws find 
command.  Hit control F.  Type in a word that you know will always be before 
where you want to start reading.

For example, say you are taking an online class and you want to get to your 
calendar.  From your main page, hit control F, then type in the word 
calendar, and hit enter.  it should place you on the calendar link where you 
can press enter to go to the calendar.

After the page loads, hit F3 which will refresh the last search request. 
The first time you hit F3 it will take you to the overall link to the 
calendar.  The second time you hit F3 it will take you to the beginning of 
your individual calendar where you can start reading the real info you are 
trying to get to.

Good luck,
James
