Mike and All,

I think one might do better to do this on a per-Website basis rather than generally, lest there be key use conflicts with JAWS in normal operation. (I did this to Facebook, and it does help there a little.)

Subject: [JAWS-Users] Allow Application Reserved Keystrokes,Explained & Where to Find

Hi All,

Here's a new feature that was added to this most recent Jaws update that I
learned of.  Where to find, & it's explanation is below.

1. Open the Settings Center & then the default Settings Center for all
applications.
2. Arrow down to, Web / HTML / PDFs, & press right arrow to open.
3. Arrow down to, Miscellaneous, right arrow to open.
4. Arrow down to, Allow Web Application Reserve keystrokes, & press the
spacebar to check it.
5. Tab to, Apply, press the spacebar, tab to the, Okay button, press enter
to save & close.

Allow Application Reserved Keystrokes explained:


Certain interactive Web sites may offer hot keys to perform some common
tasks. For example, on the Facebook Web site you can press P to post a
status, L to like a story, C to comment on a story, or J and K to scroll
between News Feed stories. However, these keystrokes also conflict with JAWS
Navigation Quick Keys.
When this check box is selected, any JAWS keystrokes that are also defined
as hot keys by a Web site will perform the site specific task instead of the
JAWS command. This check box is cleared by default


HTH
Take care.
Mike
