Hi All, Maybe this will help. There is also a YouTube link towards the bottom that talks about Caret Browsing.
From: Soronel Haetir Caret browsing is not really a win7 feature, it is a browser feature instead. Really all it does, as far as I can tell, is make the browser a bit more keyboard friendly in the absence of a screen reader. It does make a visible caret show up on the page which has been really helpful when I've been trying to get sighted assistance with pages because then it is much easier to communicate about exactly where in the page I am looking. The keyboard interaction stuff it enables though is pretty much already taken care of by any screen reader product. Soronel From: Mike & Barbara Hi Lisle, Here's another explanation. In computing, caret navigation is a kind of keyboard navigation where a caret (also known as "text cursor", "text insertion cursor", or "text selection cursor") is used to navigate within a text document. It is a fundamental feature for applications that deal with text, for example text editors, word processors and desktop publishing programs. This kind of navigation is also supported by the Mozilla-based web browsers, where it is referred as "caret browsing". A shortcut key (F7) is assigned to toggle between caret mode and non-caret mode. In caret mode, a blinking caret appears within the webpage. User can then navigate the webpage using arrow keys. The navigation is finer than spatial navigation and tabbing navigation, which deals with hyperlinks only, but most times it is slower. so basically if you have a PSP or cellphone browser... that's what it becomes like.. where you can move up and down by using the arrow keys [they jump to the next link] to turn it off press F7 again BTW, thanks for asking this question. I always wondered what the hell it was as well! LOL LOL Now we both have learned a little! Take care. Mike From: Mike & Barbara Click on the link below for a tutorial of some sorts, I don't know if it's a video or just audio. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0UpV0vyqjbY I didn't have time to listen to but, a minute or so. Hope this helps a little. Take care. Mike Take care. Mike Global warming? Most likely caused from hot air generated by politicians!
