Hello Wendy. The reason you are taken back to the tp is because when you
go back into Browse mode with control-shift-a, the page has changed and
Window-Eyes is showing you the dynamically updated page. if you want to
quickly reach the place where you were, you could do this by setting a
place marker and then you can get back to any specific part of the page
very quickly.

Here I am again with some more queries.
I am shopping for groceries, and the quickest way to do this is to use my
favourites list. I jump down the headings to a section where I want to add
an item to my basket, find the item and get to the edit box to fill in the
quantity. I press enter to turn browse mode off and fill in the number.
What I want to do after that is get back to the list and go to the next item
I want to buy and fill in the quantity. Pressing enter again doesn't get me
out of the edit box, and when I press control shift A to turn on browse mode
again, it jumps me right up to the top of the page, and I have to jump down
again to get back to where I was before. Is there any way of adding
quantities one at a time without having to find my place again and again?
With a favourites list, you can add all the quantities in and then just
press add to basket button once, and everything is added. This is much
faster than adding one item at a time and then having to go back to the
favourites page.
Another problem I have is with place markers. I am following the excellent
MP3 tutorials provided by GW Micro, and the one on using the internet gives
great detail on how to add place markers. I added one to a page where I
wanted to jump to a particular line of text. I made sure to uncheck the
temporary check box. However, when I go back to that site and that
particular page, press K, I am told there is no place marker. What am I
doing wrong or failing to do?
I am also finding that when I load some websites, I can't immediately read
the page. Some sites come up ok, and I can read the page straight away, but
with others I find I am having to press F6 a couple of times to get past the
favourites button. Why should this be so?
I realise that learning a new screenreader requires patience and
perseverance, and I am constantly referring to the MP3 tutorials and the
manual, but I have to say that in some respects I am not finding Window-Eyes
quite as quick to respond as I would expect.
Any help with these issues would be much appreciated.
Wendy
