Hello and welcome to the JAWS Users list. This list has been created for The
purpose of discussing all aspects of the JAWS for Windows screen reader
Program.
So everything that pertains to JAWS is fair game. Such as asking about what
software packages work well with JAWS or how to make them
I was able to reinstall the regular version of FF 15 I had on my computer
and followed the directions to prevent updates. It seems to have worked.
15 just installed over 19.
I did go to the site to download the portable version of Firefox and
downloaded version portable 15 and portable 16.
Hi,
Does anyone know of a web development tool that works well with JAWS? I
want to make my website look a little better and I would like to start using
something better than just creating pages in Word and saving to html, which
is what I have been doing.
Thanks,

Is it still necessary to prevent Adobe from opening PDF files in the
browser? With Adobe XI, you do this from within the browser, under manage
Add-ons.
Just curious.

I believe that for the iPhone, a ringtone must be in the m4r format. If
it's not already in that format, I believe there are several paid and free

Hi All,
Does anyone know how to stop Jaws from saying, grawv / gráv, when pressing

Yes, this is an handy action and I was about to tell you a bit about
it but Robin did a great job in getting you much more info that I was
going to say. One thing I have experienced is there are times when you
will hear that command just won't seem to work. Just an FYI should
you run into
That could be because of non-text elements. In other words, the page may
have changed but not in a way that JAWS can read or recognize.

3. Use right arrow
