Maybe html5 will be better. Don`t know for sure and when html5 will be
used
on most sites is another question. Maybe some of you computer experts have
read some information about analyze of when html5 will be used?

Emne: Re: Links That Do Nothing When Clicked (Continued)
It really does feel like we have been left behind when it comes to any
moddern web technology accessibility. I sure hope that changes.

Hi David, I did get the Amazon links to work by using the insert tab
and
activate link choice. When I select the Yes link and go to the context
menu,
Open does not even appear.
But nothing will get the Greyhound link to work. I can get the Open
choice
to appear with that link, but hitting it does nothing. When I use the
insert
tab method, it clicks as though it were opening, but the same page comes
up.
In fairness, it may be putting up the same page because I did not fill
out
the required information for my itinerary, but nothing on the page says
that, so I have no idea what's going on there.

Here is two work-arounds, that I end up using quite often. They don't
always work, but it is worth a try, and please report back, if it does
not,
since others might have further ideas.
Locate yourself on the link, that does not work. Then hit the APP
key,
and scroll down till you hit the menu choice of Open. It should be the
first
or second choice on your list. Hit ENTER. This forces the link to open,
in
a
somehow different way than just hitting ENTER, or whatever the reason is
why
it works.
If the approach above did not take you anything further, try this
one.
Still, locate yourself at the troublesome link. On your Numpad, hit the
INSERT-PLUS combination, to bring the mouse there. Use the
INSERT-NUMPAD-6,
and INSERT-NUMPAD-4, to move your mouse till it gets at the right word,
then
hit the NUMPAD-SLASH key, to left-click on the link.
I agree, this happens more and more often; and a real solution won't
be
around, till next WE version. But, if any of the above could be a
work-around, at least you can do your job. In IE8, have you made sure to
turn on compatibility mode, for the troublesome page, and see if that
could
fix your problem. In certain cases, I do find, that Firefox will let you
click on objects, that you can't get to work in IE, and vice-versa.
That's
why I have both browsers installed, and am switching between them,
depending
on the job to be done; and the site to be visited. It is my hope, that
the
new browser feature of GW, will workk similar in both browsers, that we
don't have to run zic-zac in our software collection, just to do a plain
forward job.

Using WE 7.2 and IE8, Vista Home Premium, I'm having the same
problem
with the Search Schedules link on
http://www.greyhound.com/#
I tried just hitting "enter" on it; I tried routing the pointer to
it;
nothing seems to make it work. Any other ideas?
Is this something wrong with my system, or is there something goofy
with Window Eyes? Does anyone ever have this problem with Firefox?
Thanks.
Evan
