[Trainer-talk] help with email link/Internet Explorer

[David Goldfield]

Anita,
Try this.
Open the message in Windows Live Mail containing the link.
Point to the link with your arrow keys but don't press the enter key to 
open the link.
Instead, use the context menu or what JAWS calls the applications key, 
which is the third key to the right of the spacebar.
Does the menu have a choice such as copy link" or "copy link location?"
If it does, press enter on that choice.
In theory, this should copy the actual address or URL of the page to 
your clipboard.
Now, open Internet Explorer.
Press alt-D to go to the address bar.
Press ctrl-V to paste the link that is in your clipboard onto the 
address bar.
Press enter.
Does it work?

Also, are you able to press enter on links contained in other messages 
without receiving script errors?
As an example, I'll place a link to Freedom Scientific's Web site below. 
If you press enter on that link, does it take you to the correct page?
www.freedomscientific.com
