I also never use the accessible site, only the main one. I tried the accessible site some time ago, but it wouldn’t sell me downloadable music on it, so I went back to the main site. I also navigate by headings, but I use the Window Eyes Find command a lot. For example, I do what Chris does, entering des or descrip or something similar to find a product description; if it’s books I’m looking at, I search for the word pages if I want to know how many pages are in the book or when it was published (because that info is usually right next to the number of pages); or the word editorial if I want to hear what the book is about. There are other examples I could give, but that’s the general idea. So I can get around the main site pretty well and I use it quite a bit. Evan

One thing you’ll want to keep in mind when searching for a product, heading level 3 will jump you from one search result to the next. Activate a product of interest and when its page loads, I have searched for des with control-shift-f, most of the time it finds the description. You can also just jump by heading levels in most cases. Chris From: Paulette Vickery [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, September 10, 2014 3:53 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Navigating Amazon Hi all, I really like the Amazon accessible site for ease of use, but I can’t find any item descriptions. I have used the full site, but it is so difficult to use that I usually just go back to the more accessible site. Does anyone know of any way to make the full site easier to use with Window Eyes, or if I am just missing the description in the product details of the more accessible Amazon site? Thanks. I am using Windows 7 and WE 8.4. Paulette If you reply to this message it will be delivered to the original sender only.
