[NFBCS] How Do You Use the Scrolling Feeds on Facebook with JAWS without It Flinging the Focus All over the Place

[Lewis Wood]

I also miss the more stories button. Since they implemented forever
scrolling it can be challenging on older devices.

 

On Windows I use H3 for navigation between posts and "g" for profiled
photos/comments navigation within a post.

 

Getting back to a posts is difficult. So good luck.

 

When I get to the end  , I apuse and cursor up and do shift+h3 navigation.
Typically I wil then have to do it 4 or five times, because loading has auto
loaded them.

 

I fast track to the like button on a post by  pressing "g" repeatedly until
I hear my name. then just cursor up a few times and click like. Then watch
my focus jump.

 

I use http://m.facebook.com , perhaps some other more ambitious person will
give you detailed work around on the standard site.

without It Flinging the Focus All over the Place

 

            Just now, I tried to read a feed in a Facebook group, using
heading navigation to move between the posts, but I ended up giving up after
only a few posts because, every time that I get near the bottom of the feed,
it scrolls the feed without maintaining the focus, so the focus goes off the
end. When I try to move back up by heading back into the feed, it just
causes it to scroll more. Wash, rinse, repeat. Any suggestions on the best
way to do this? I don't use the mobile site, so please do not give that as
an answer.
