Hi.
I've found a trick that helps when using Facebook in combination with Window-Eyes 7.01. It still requires the mouse, but it is easier than trying to locate the Add and cancel buttons after pressing the Enter button on the Add As Friend link. This same method can be used to Poke friends or Comment on their status or just about any other standard Facebook procedure. To add a friend, do the following once the focus is on the Add As Friend link. 1. Route the mouse to the focus. Unfortunately, this is not exact, so you will have to do a little groping to get the mouse on top of the link. However, it is much les groping than searching for the Add button later. 2. When the mouse is on the link. TURN BROWSE MODE OFF. 3. Now press the left mouse button. When the screen refreshes, or whatever it does, the focus will be on the Add button. If you press Tab, you will find the Cancel button. I have no idea why this works, but I've had a 100% success rate with it. Suzy! The Blind Avenger!

When I use http://www.facebook.com and add friends, the screen updates, but MSAA doesn't tell me this. I have to either review the screen with the mouse pointer or turn off and on browse mode with cttrl+shift+a. is there something I am missing? I would love for this to update automatically, but don't know of a way for this to happen with MSAA being used. Other than this, GREAT VERSION! I am strongly considering purchasing WE and killing off JAWS. ------------------- Windows Live messenger/E-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> [EMAIL PROTECTED] Skype: wiljames yahoo Messenger: wiljames4 Personal Web Page: http://wil.wilanddenise.com <http://wil.wilanddenise.com/> ------------------- THE DRUG-RESISTANT STRAIN OF V.D.
