Brian
Thank you so much.
When I first lost my sight I payed a small fortune to get help, I can
safely say that I have learned more on these pages than I ever learned
from my tutor, also a wonderful sense of belonging.
Many thanks
Niamh

Hi Niamh;
First, never feel like you are asking a stupid question. The only stupid
question, is the question that is not asked. This computer crap can drive
us all up a wall! LOL
Below are a couple of ways of doing what you want, if I'm understanding
your
question correctly.
One thing you can do is to select and copy information from a web site as
text only. This use to be the default in earlier versions of JAWS. When
on
a web page bring up JAWS verbosity with Insert_V and use down arrow to
move
to the "virtual cursor settings choice." Expand the group if it is closed
by using right arrow. Use down arrow to move to the choice "select and
copy
full content using on screen highlight." Press the spacebar until JAWS
says
"select and copy using virtual cursor" and then press the enter key. When
you select the information and copy or append it to the clipboard, the
formatting and HTML element information won't be included.
Take care.

I am working on a sales training manual and find that the following
removes
html formatting from source material copied from web based resources.
1. Highlight the text/Email you want to copy.
2. Copy it to the windows clipboard with CTRL+C.
3. Return to, or open a new document.
4. If you are copying text into an existing document, When you get to the
place you want to insert your copied material press
alt+E. Just press Alt + E if you are pasting text into a new document.
5. Up-arrow until you hear Jaws say "paste special...."
6. Press enter and up-arrow until you hear Jaws say "paste as unformatted
text" and press enter.
This will remove all of the HTML formatting from your copied material and
insert it into your document.
Be advised that your cursor will be at the bottom of the inserted material
and you will need to use the appropriate reading commands to get to the
beginning of your text.

Hope the above steps have helped. Take care.

Firstly, happy new year and heart felt thanks to you all for your help,
discovering this site genuinely changed my life last year, I no longer
feel
alone and such a fool.
What I needed was some help with copying a webpage and then reading it
in a plain text format.
I use Jaws 11 and have 12 available but would prefer to use 11 right
now,
any thoughts most appreciated.
