Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Information on using Tool Bar
In Internet Explorer the insert+F8 only brings up the IE toolbar. The
insert-F8 keystroke is generally mapped to the function for showing the
active application's toolbar. Sometimes by moving to the top of a web page
using CTRL+home keys, routing JAWS to virtual PC, doing a page up and then
moving down a line at a time with the down arrow key will find other
toolbars. If you do find your toolbar then you can move a word at a time
across it using CTRL+right arrow until you find the tool you want to click.
Use a left mouse click emulation by using the insert+slash keys on the
numpad when numlock is off. After clicking on the choice remember to put
the virtual PC cursor on again.
Some one else might have a better way to access other toolbars in Internet
Explorer. The above sometimes works for me and sometimes doesn't work.
To perform the above functions if you have a laptop using the laptop
keyboard configuration, use the caps lock key instead of the insert. A left
mouse click can be done with caps lock and the number 8. Moving a word at a
time when JAWS cursor is active can be done with caps lock and L. Routing
JAWS to PC or virtual cursors is done with caps lock+left bracket keys.
Activating PC or virtual cursors is done with caps lock semicolon.
