Re: [JAWS-Users] well I was wrong
This is the procedure I use a lot. Sometimes these webmasters use fancy DHTML coding for displaying important buttons at the very bottom of the web page. The only way JAWS can see these buttons are in OCR mode. At 01:17 PM 5/20/2017, you wrote: Sometimes, you can try object character recognition in Jaws, then left-clicking the result.

My memory fails me as to who started this thread so please forgive that. The messages are fine but the subject line needs a lot of work.
