[Nfb-web] PS, Adding Fields to Drupal Views

[Michael Hansen]

Joe,

I don't know how to describe this is JAWS maybe somebody could help
me. To the right of the fields link there is a plus symbol. The alt
text of this plus symbol says "add". By clicking on this link it will
allow you to add a field.

FYI: When you create a new view you start out in the Default display.
This is a area for you to configure settings that will be applied to
all displays that you create for this view. For what it sounds like
you are wanting to do you will want to create a "page" display.
