I'm sorry, Rose, I didn't pick up on that part of your question. Actually, the command is two-part: first press JAWS key+spacebar, the JAWS layer command, release, and only then press m. less torture, better results!! -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List

Alone, this combo does nothing, as you say. However, if you mark a point in the text with control+Windows key+k, then move to another point and press this combo, the text between the two points will be selected. -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List

Oh, I see Ted. Because I am usually working with journal articles when using this feature, or something like bbc world news, it becomes really innocuous, but I see your point here. Hope this will get solved somehow. All the best, Takis -Original

Another thought. the "r" shortcut takes you to a webpage's different regions. Pressing r until you hear "main region" is another way of getting to content quickly. For me, the problem with a "Skip to main content" link is that the webpage sees clicking on it as moving to a new page. When I'm

Ted, You're right that "n" will do a lot of the heavy lifting. This quick key skips over links to the next block of non-link text. I'd add the letter h for heading to your arsenal. I find that a combination of h and n gets me to the beginning, or nearby the beginning, of most articles. If I

Dear List: If I want to read an article that is on a web page, or the first occurrence of non-controlled text, is there a quick navigation command to jump to the body of the article where text is found without having to wade through all of the controls that precede it? I thought the letter n
