Sarah,

You need to make sure certain settings are checked in the VoiceOver utility.

Then you should be able to open Safari, turn quick nav on, and use some of the commands to navigate.

You can use the num row to jump to headings, f to jump to form fields, edit bxes and the like.

Use b for buttons, and x for check boxes.
Press VO f8 to get to VO utilities.

Select commands as your utility category, select the second tab which reads "keyboard tab." 

Now check a box that reads enable single key webpage navigation with using quick nav

I don't know if you need to check the first box that reads enable quick nav. I checked it now on my machine. You can play with these options and see the results for yourself.

There is much more I'm sure. You may want to ask for a complete list of these on the mac visionaries listserv.


HTH,

Antonio Guimaraesrow
