We believe that WE 7 only made previous position worse when WE is set
to read the entire page. Since previous position has had problems
for a long time I simply don't see this as a big
regression. Previous position was written when pages were mostly
static. Now many pages have changes that you sometimes see and
sometimes don't and in all cases they brake previous position. I'll
bet if you could transport back in time with WE 7 to 1998 and use
it's browse mode it would work a lot better. Browse mode needs to be
updated to work with modern web pages better and we will be doing
this. I use browse mode many hours a day for both browsing and
reading email and just don't agree with the idea that it is broken
and unusable. It has short comings, but most of them are because the
web is a different animal than the one we trapped in 1998. Also we
are not getting a lot of tech support relating to this issue. When
we make decisions on what to do with WE we consider all of our
customers not just the few that happen to be on gw-info.

It would seem only fair to me that since WE 7 was a step backwards
with regards to browse mode that it should be a free upgrade when it
is fixed and not another amount of dollars over and beyond what we
paid for WE 7. If not I would say GW is taking a step backwards
towards being like FS.

Subject: Re: WE 7 and browse mode
I understand the below:
The only problem I have it back when browse mode was developed we
were told that msaa was great.
Other screen reader companies did there own proprietary stuff for
this and gw was working with microsoft with msaa to do it right.
Browse mode took a while etc.
It's never worked correctly ... why the complete rewrite?
When will this be done?
I think most of us use the applications taht use browse mode the
most of all apps.
We need to truly get this fixed as soon as we can and certainly
beofre we start adding more features.
Thanks so listening to my views.

We only stated that browse mode was going to be redone post
7.0. This is a major project and won't be released in any service
pack or minor update.

Did I understand it correctly from the GW staff that they would be
coming out with a WE 7 service pack soon after the release of WE 7
which would fix the browse mode problems that seemed to get worse
with the new release?
