Great post! Lots of helpful info for the main page. One thing I wanted to mention about the mobile site is that pressing insert and enter will allow you to navigate comment by comment. You have to arrow up to see who said what but it's another way of doing things. I really appreciate the info on using the main page. Thanks!

First I want to say what a very helpful informative posting. Thanks much. Secondly, I actuly wanted to just send my thanks directly to sender using Jaws key shift r but even though it says direct to sender it seems to go to the jaws list. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Sherrie Gosling" <sillygoo...@charter.net> To: <jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com> Sent: Wednesday, December 02, 2009 12:38 AM Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] facebook mobile and jaws? >I use Facebook every day and dislike the mobile site.
