Yes, Mike.

This works nicely.

Thanks so much!

As I explained to Adrian, my error was trying to use my arrow keys to
double-check things.

Hi Dr. Tom,

After you press Alt + D or, F6 to highlight the address bar, the address bar
is highlighted.  All you need to do is invoke the control + C keystroke to
copy it to the clipboard.  If you need to edit the link, you should paste it
into Notepad or an email to do so before pasting it where you want it to go.
Take care.
Mike

Subject: [JAWS-Users] Problem highlighting and copying web addresses


Hello, everyone.



This quiry relates to the recent thread on reading web addresses, but I
think my issue is different than what has been encountered thus far.



Basically, my problem is this:



When I am on a particular web site, I can initially access the URL web
address using either alt D or f6, but as soon as I start working with my
arrow keys to make sure I have focus on the address, or to actually copy the
address onto my clipboard, the address literally disappears.



At first, I thought this was a Jaws issue, in that the address is still on
the screen and simply is not being recognized by Jaws.  However, I had  my
sighted wife check, and she said that the address disappears from the screen
as well whenever I start working with my arrow keys.



I can gget a listing of other web addresses on the screen, but the one I
originally wanted seems to be gone.



Has anyone encountered this issue, and if so, how did you work around it?



I have found the problem with both Internet Explorer and Firefox.



I'm using Jaws 16 with Windows 7, IE 9, and Firefox 38  on this particular
computer.
