[Trainer-talk] exploring with pages with JAWS

[Julie Adkins]

Oh, I was wondering about that.  Since a lot of time can pass between JAWS
clients for me, I could not remember which way I had typically taught it.
Several months ago I had someone who, when he pressed Control + F, just got
a Find dialog within Internet Explorer itself, which would go find the text
visually (with a yellow highlight block), but not actually move the cursor
there.  So I trained him to use the Insert + Control + F.  I thought he had
Internet Explorer 9, but it must have been 8.  Last night I tried the
regular Control + F on my home computer with JAWS on, and saw that it worked
fine.  I was feeling really confused.  Thanks for clearing that up.  That's
why I love having these listservs!!

Great notes.
Two quick observations. First. in a browser, since Jaws 9 or 10, I can't
recall it's been a while since my FS days, pressing control f, is the same
as pressing control INS F, try it, you'll hear both say jaws find. This may
be less keystroke intensive on a new keyboard user. Second, if the user has
followed your first step of moving to the top of a web page with control
Home, it's probably just as easy at this point to press E for the search
field, as pressing control INS home. Just thought I'd mention these as
there's always more than one way to skin a cat.
