Thanks you two! <smile> -will try this later today and get back with y'all...

Oh, btw, just as an FYI, if I can get this to work, it's looking like I'll have mostly all of the functionality I'm used to, (aside from the continuous reading) so things are looking good in that regard. I may also check out Safari 2 to deal with that weirdness and then should be set up quite nicely for the time being...

David, thanks very much for your tips on link selection behavior in Safari. It really helped...

Anyway, thanks again to the both of you! -and have a wonderful day!...

Smiles,

Cara  :)

Yes, item and link choosers are great for this.

How about the Item Chooser (VoKeys+i). If you bring this up and start typing, it should narrow down the list. It looks through all text items, so I think it may be similar in function to the Jaws virtual buffer search. Press enter when you find what you want and it'll take you to that text.

I've not tried this much, especially on the web, and I do not have Lepoard, so your millage may vary.

Subject: VO search function in Safari


Hey All, am wondering if anyone might have some tips on searching in Safari?... I use the search function quite a bit in web pages and am trying to get used to it in VO. One thing I'm finding is that it seems to consistently jump out of the html area and may cause VO to lose focus on it. I can't really give more detail yet at this point, but I definitely will write more on it as I learn more...

This behavior is intermittent and the function also seems to miss instances of words that are definitely there...

As I said, would sure love any feedback anyone might have, and will definitely keep checking this out as I go...

Thanks in advance and have a wonderful evening / rest of the weekend!!!...
Smiles,

Cara  :)
