Yes, you are right. Judy

Hi Adrian, Yes, I assume that Judy selected the desired text before trying to make it a link. Regarding CTRL+Z, it is probably a typo, since CTRL+Z is for Undo. Trying Pass Key Through (JAWS+3) is a good idea. Since she's using IE, she should press this JAWS command, then ALT+L, then this JAWS command again and finally ENTER. Additionally, Judy could also try changing, at least temporarily, the Link Activation option in Quick Settings. This option defines wetter JAWS simulates a left mouse click on the link or a pressing of the ENTER key on it; by default JAWS simulates a left mouse click, but FS recommends testing the other alternative in case the user has problems activating links in a website. If this solves the problem, Judy could change this in the Personalized Web Settings branch, specifically for the problematic website. -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Adrian Spratt Sent: Wednesday, February 14, 2018 6:09 AM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Using a web site provided text formatter. Some thoughts: First, Fernando, shouldn't Judy select the text and only then press control-z to turn off the virtual cursor, then alt-l or shift-alt-l? How about pressing the JAWS pass-through key, JAWS key+3 on the number row above the letters, before pressing either alt-l or shift-alt-l? I used to experience this same problem with WordPress. In that case, Jonathan Mosen suggested trying shift-alt-a. that key combination is probably specific to WordPress, but maybe not. WordPress solved this problem in the past year or so by enabling just about all formatting in Word, including links, to carry through to the WordPress website. Judy, you might ask this website's people if they're working on a similar solution. -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Fernando Gregoire Sent: Tuesday, February 13, 2018 11:14 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Using a web site provided text formatter. As an alternative, try disabling the JAWS Virtual Cursor with INSERT+Z before selecting the desired text and pressing ALT+L. Hope it works! -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Judy Jones Sent: Wednesday, February 14, 2018 1:04 AM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: [JAWS-Users] Using a web site provided text formatter. Hello, with an update. Sorry, Fernando, the Alt-L enter keystroke did not work to create a hyperlink from within a text body on Internet Explorer. It still took me to a new web page. Just for fun, I also tried the Alt-Shift-L, did not work either.
