Sometimes when I can’t get Jaws to click an element I ask my sighted husband to
click it with the regular mouse pad. It often seems that the portion of the
webpage visible on the computer screen does not follow the Jaws PC cursor. The
problem is that when I find the location with Jaws he says the words are not on
the screen. Shouldn’t there be a visible cursor showing where the Jaws focus
is on the screen?
Granted, my husband has vision but no computer skills so he can’t locate the
spot I want him to click without much guidance from me. Since I can’t see the
screen at all I don’t know if there is a cursor there or not.
Would it affect Jaws if I tried to make the mouse pointer bigger or something,
if it is really onscreen at all.
Is there some kind of Jaws page formatting that would make the page appear in
the way sighted people see it?
Any suggestions will be appreciated.
