  I have both Jaws 16 and 17, and I have heard people talk about labeling 
unlabeled links or buttons.  How is this done?
  Thanks.

Hello,

When on the Internet, once you locate a button without a label, press JAWS / 
Insert Key, Control, + Tab.  You will then be asked to type in a label.
I hope this is what you were needing.

Place focus on the link or button to which you want to assign a label, press 
Insert+F2, and select
"Custom Label" from the list.
This has been in JAWS going back at least several versions.  These are 
different features for doing similar things.  The "Prompt Creator" and 
"Graphics Labeler" are used for labeling controls and graphics in 
applications.  The "Custom Label" option is used for labeling HTML elements 
like buttons and links on webpages.

Take care.  Mike.  Go Dodgers!

Subject: [JAWS-Users] Labeling buttons


I'm trying to remember what Jaws calls it when you provide a label for a
button or other control that hasn't been named properly and thus doesn't
speak.  I think I saw it once but can't think of the word to locate it
in the help system. Could someone please remind me?
