Hi Umesha, Just go to the beginning of the sentence which you wana highlight, press shift and downarrow and entire line will be highlighted. use other standerd jaws reading keystrokes such as for highlighting the word, control plus shift plus rightarrow and it'll work. needless to say that it is a temproary solution just to guide your sighted fokes to find the area of a webpage which you are refering.
