Hi James,
Take a look at the following. I got this from the FS website:
OnMouseOvers
Use the keystroke INSERT+CTRL+ENTER to explore OnMouseOver events whenever
you stop on a link where JAWS reports one.
EXERCISE: Open the
MouseOver page of the Surf's Up Web site
and follow along with the instructions below.
Web page authors use OnMouseOvers to display text or images when a visitor
moves the mouse pointer over a particular part of the page. On this sample
page,
when a user moves the mouse pointer over one of the product names, which
are
actually graphic links, the page displays a brief summary of the product.
When the user clicks the graphic, the page takes them to the Freedom
Scientific Web site to provide additional resources.
NOTE: Two different things happen here depending on whether you simply
move
the mouse cursor over the graphic or actually activate the link.
JAWS says, "OnMouseOver" when you move to an element with an OnMouseOver.
OnMouseOver is an attribute that Web page authors add to HTML elements to
enable
OnMouseOver functionality.
Open the
MouseOver page of the Surf's Up Web site
sample page. Read through the page first. It is relatively short. Notice
that after the first heading, there are four OnMouseOver links which JAWS
identifies.
Continue reading and you will hear a brief bit of text that begins "This
page is designed to demonstrate the use of the OnMouseOver attribute. When
a
mouse
user moves the pointer over the image links ..." Go ahead and read through
this text. When you activate an OnMouseOver in the next series of steps,
this
text will change on the screen.
Activating an OnMouseOver with JAWS actually moves the mouse cursor over
the
graphic link for you. You do this by pressing INSERT+CTRL+ENTER when you
hear
JAWS announce OnMouseOver links. To see how JAWS interacts with
OnMouseOvers
on Web pages, do the following:
list of 7 items
1. Go to the
MouseOver page of the Surf's Up Web site
sample page and press DOWN ARROW until you move to the one of the graphic
links with an OnMouseOver.
2. Press INSERT+CTRL+ENTER to activate the OnMouseOver for that link.
3. JAWS announces that the page has changed at a certain line. On the
screen, the brief descriptive text that summarized how to use the page
with
a mouse
is replaced by text that describes the product.
4. Press J, type the line number JAWS spoke, and press ENTER. JAWS moves
you
directly to the place on the page where the new text is displayed. Using
the
Jump To Line command (J) in this manner allows you to read new information
that appears on the page when you activate an OnMouseOver. Take a moment
to
read through the new text.
5. Press SHIFT+J to move back to the graphic link. Holding down SHIFT when
using the Jump To Line command moves you back to your previous location on
the
page.
6. Press ENTER to activate the link. This takes you to the Freedom
Scientific Web site. You can press BACKSPACE to return to the previous
page.
7. Try moving to the other OnMouseOver links and following these same
steps
for more practice.
list end
JAWS Tip: Notice how pressing ENTER and pressing INSERT+CTRL+ENTER can
produce very different results with some Web page elements. Pressing
INSERT+CTRL+ENTER
simply moves the mouse pointer over the element, while pressing ENTER
actually clicks the element and moves you to the new page, or a different
spot on
the current page depending on the web page author's intent.
Take care.
Mike

Hi Neil,
The answer to almost every question you asked is yes. The desktop works
exactly the same. You can use another email client Outlook, Windows Live
mail, or Thunderbird. The settings area is much easier to use. The start
area works even better. You can pin any programs to the start area. There
isn't that much to do to customize win 10 for what you want at all. It
really isn't that different to windows 7, but it is so much better,
because you have the tile apps in the start area. You can use those apps,
and download more usable free apps through the windows store. There is
also something called quick access. You can pin many programs to quick
access and set that to open by pressing windows + E. You can set default
apps for your browser, email, music player and so on. You will really
love
win 10 on a new computer. Win 10 is also very quick and stable. It will
only get better and better with more up dates. Take care.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] Purchasing computer with Windows 10;Installing JAWS
& MS Office on it.
Hello Gang:
Much of the conversation has centered around upgrading from Windows 7 or
8.1. There has not been much conversation about purchasing a computer
with
Windows 10, already on it, and installing JAWS and MS Office on it.
So, I have several questions, about doing just that.
Many of us use only word, internet, and e-mail. And, some more are
involved
with music. But, I don't do very much music on my computer. Just the main
three things mentioned earlier.
1. Does the desktop still "look" the same? In other words does windows D
take you directly to the desktop?
2. Can I place the programs there as in earlier versions of Windows?
3. Can I put short cuts on the desktop the same way?
4. Does the start menu still work the same way? Can I put the three main
programs on it?
5. I understand Edge does not work very well. Can IE 11 be downloaded to
the
desktop?
5. I think the same is true for the e-mail package that comes with
Windows
10. Would I be able to install Outlook or WLM on the new computer?
6. How much of Jim Flush's customizing would be necessary to just do
those
three main things - word, internet, and e-mail?
7. Can programs be activated from the start menu the same way?
Thanks for any and all input you knowledgeable folks may have! Appreciate
it a lot.
Neil
