[Nfb-krafters-korner] internet explorer prob which is part of my research prob

[Annette Carr]

Hi Jennifer,

I do not know the cause of the problem, nor a permanent fix, but here is
what I do for a work around.  I am using Windows7 I.E.7 or 8 and JAWS 12.

Navigate to the link
Press enter.
If nothing happens, tap the applications key.
Navigate to Open, or any of the other open options on the context menu.
Press Enter.

If you find out how to fix this permanently, please let me know.

HTH,
Annette

Subject: [Nfb-krafters-korner] internet explorer prob which is part of my
research prob

I would not normally come to this list with an internet explorer or other
computer problem, but this one is keeping me from doing some research on
building a pattern for a dress I am making.

 

When I click on a link that should open another page, I am just remaining on
the same page. Now this is only on links where a new internet explorer page
should open, not on ones that just move away from the page that is open. For
example, I can click on the links in Google, but if I try to click on a link
to open a new page that is referred to in the article I find, that is when
it goes no where.

 

I know this has something to do with some kind of setting, but I can not
recall what or where. Any help will be appreciated.

 

 

Jennifer
