This isn't true. Adding the JAWS key searches the entire webpage, not just the current screen. The practical difference between the two functions is that adding the JAWS key always works, whereas control-f alone doesn't always work. I stopped using control-f years ago.

Cc: Bill White Subject: Re: When on the net. The practical impact is that if you want to look for something on a webpage, it's better to use Control plus F to find the content. There will usually be more in that buffer than in the screen buffer accessed with JAWS KEY plus Control plus F. If you use the screen find command, the content you are looking for may not currently be on the screen, but it may be on the web page itself.
