Re: [JAWS-Users] links
Hi Holger, If you are composing your e-mail as plain text, it will actually be no hyperlinks, so the presence of clickable links will depend on wetter the recipients e-mail client or web service recognizes web addresses or the type of link that pertaining text is likely to be. If you want to be sure that links will be recogniced as such, use HTML format when composing your message and, although by default WLM converts links automatically, you can be even more sure if you manually use the option for inserting an hyperlink, which in WLM I don't remember if it can be done by pressing CTRL+K as in Outlook or if it's necessary to select the text first and then choosing an item in the Insert tab, similar to the procedure in Outlook Express. But be aware that this won't work if the recipient configured their e-mail client (or if it was automatically configured so by an antivirus) to read all messages as plain text. Hope it helps! -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List <jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com> On Behalf Of Holger Fiallo Sent: Sunday, March 25, 2018 5:33 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: [JAWS-Users] links When I send a link to someone they do not get it as a link.

Re: [JAWS-Users] links in a document
Hi Patti, Being that the links were coming from a different program even though the link was removed the text attributes might not have changed. The steps I gave in my first message were for links created in word using the hyperlink field. The CTRL with shift and f9 still might remove the link but the text that is left might not match what you want. You might want to check the text for which you removed the links and see if the attributes changed or if you have to change them. If you use JAWS key F on the text that was a link you can hear the attributes announced. If at this point you need to change the font, font size, color, etc. of the text you removed the hyperlink from, and if you have nearby text you want to match, here is what to do. Select at least one character of the text you want matched and use CTRL with shift and C to copy it. Select the text that you removed the hyperlink from but which retained the attributes applied by the origin program, and use CTRL with shift and V to paste the formatting you copied. Again, if you copy the links from another program you might just want to use paste special and choose unformatted text. However, if the links were created with Word fields then using CTRL with shift and f9 is a quick way to do it. Take care.

If you find this is only happening a fraction of the time, in other words, you're mostly copying links to send space, or something like that, it's best to leave it in plain text, and if there's a link you have to click on to go view a product, let's say, press the keystroke of alt+shift+H, this will switch the e-mail into HTML, and keep the rest of your e-mails secure.

If you copy & paste the link into the Run dialogue & press enter will it work then? Also, is it possible that the links are sent in plain text? If so, then pasting them into the Run dialogue should work. Or, you can try the keystrokes below on the links. To open links sent in plain text, try the following for Outlook Express. #1. Place the cursor at the beginning of the link & invoke the keystroke, Shift + Enter. #2. Place the cursor at the beginning of the link & invoke the keystroke, Alt, Shift, + H. Invoking this particular on a link somehow turns the link into an HTML link & now, just press enter. Take care. Mike. Go Dodgers! Sent from my iBarstool.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Links don't work in OE
Yes, Andy, we do live in different times, more knowledgeable times. If Yahoo hadn't made the mistake of telling us about web beacons, then people would never have put two and two together, and gotten the reason for people getting so much spam. The fact is, you get those spam messages not because someone got a hold of your e-mail address and decided to send you loads of e-mails on erectile dysfunction, it's because a bot sent you and e-mail with a web beacon, letting it know that the message was opened and read, letting it know that it was an active e-mail address, so it could go ahead and spam the heck out of it. Andy, this is not something I just made up, it's been going on for quite sometime, and while your anti-virus can pick up on malware, Trojans and other harmful files, the fact is, it won't pick up on beacons your e-mail contains. Apple isn't coming out with so many updates for it's iOS because it wants to make things easier for us, it's coming out with them for security sakes. A hole here, and critical bug there, anti-virus is not the be all and end all of security, and besides, you're forgetting one important thing, humans are the worst offenders when it comes to opening up infected files and getting more spam. Don't get me wrong, I agree with you, anti-viruses have gotten more stronger and ever more vigilant and aware, but in the end, they can't protect us from everything, even ourselves.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Links not activating in Outlook 2013 messages
Dear friend, make sure that you are using MS Outlook as your default email if you are using windows 10. It happened for me but when I did my setting MS Outlook my default email, my problem has solved. If you want to do that setting, do the following Press ctrl+I, select system, enter there. Now down arrow until default apps press enter there Now keep pressing tab key until you hear mail press space bar then press space bar on MS Outlook as default email. If you are using windows 7 or 8, then I'm afraid I don't have solution.

How do you accomplish the cut and paste if the link doesn't appear as an address? For example, I might come across a link that says link graphic recommended for you. It doesn't show as a listed link and can't be reached with the tab key either.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Links not activating in Outlook 2013 messages
I don't know the answer except that if I get the cursor on the link, using the cursor keys on a braille display will open those links. My annoyance is that some of these messages read the subject line and stop, display, jaws virtual or review cursors say "blank" no matter what, sometimes pressing escape and reopening the message works, however, more often it still is a blank message to Jaws! No one here to say if it disappears off the screen or not. I assume it has to be something in the HTML code somewhere, but not a programmer, so not sure of that.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Links not activating in Outlook 2013 messages
Rose, When you open the message does it say something like, To protect your privacy, Outlook has blocked some pictures from being downloaded. Click here to download pictures? This is what I get all the time and I am having the same troubles as you. No matter what I do, it will not take me to the link, it will just stay where it is or take me to the top of the page. I have a sighted person here that I will send the email over to and she says that I need to hit the display images at the top but with JAWS it doesn't take me to a display images, it just starts the message if I go to the top. I have been wondering how to overcome this for a while now. If this is the same issue I hope someone can help the both of us.

But I used to find that in Outlook 20003 I had to do something strange to get the link to open. If the link started with http, I would put the pc cursor on the first t in the url and then press enter. The link would open as expected. Not sure if this is a solution for you, but I think it is worth a try.

I'm using Jaws 13 and not pro, just whatever Jaws for us unprofessionals is

Re: [JAWS-Users] Links don't open in outlook 2003
hello David, A while ago there was a problem when Google Chrome was uninstalled. Some registry entries were corrupted and this error message occurred in Outlook. Here is the link to the article http://support.microsoft.com/kb/310049 it appears that sometimes just using the reset function in Internet Explorer resolves the problem. You go into the tools menu in Internet explorer into Internet options, advance tab and do the reset button. I am not at a system right now where I have the information about corrupt registry entries. However, I am quite sure the article covers the method for correcting the registry. It has to do with corrupt HTM and HTML entries. If you don't get it resolved I will find information on it that I have on another system and send it to you.

Re: [JAWS-Users] links on website not working
Becky, Since IE10 using Jaws14 and even Jaws 15 on windows 7 machines I, like others, have seen this frustrating event of thinking you are activating a link when you press enter on the link, only to have nothing happen. Possible solutions are to press the application key while on the link and if a choice is open or open in a new window, then try and activate the link by pressing enter on the menu choice. Other times, on some web sites, doing the above does not give you any choices to activate the link, in which case I will bring up the list of links with insert key plus F7 and try activating the link that way. Sometimes, I find Shift plus enter key is needed to open the link. On other web sites, sometimes having to route jaws to PC and activate the jaws cursor with replication of the left click does the trick. Just seems to be the vagaries of some web sites. But I am sure some more sophisticated user on the list may have another explanation or suggestions. I think some of us are also finding that to go back to the previous web page can be problematic and require persistence in using the go back command of alt left arrow.

Hi. I tryed to press the spacebar on the links, and they opened as wanted. Some webpages are written to allow single mouseclick only, and when we press the enter key, we are performing a double mouseclick, and therefor there is beeing performed an activation and a canselation at the same time. See if the spacebar dos'nt solve the problem. Sometimes webpages are using mouseover links, whithout writing the links correctly, and we therefor have to use the mouseover activation anyway, but it is not the case in this situation.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Links in e mail
Well, I'm not Martha, but probably have been called much worse,lol. On my settings, my HTML is not checked, just plain text. So try that first, we are all different in how we like our emails to display, so while this works for me, it might not suit you. Make sure you do the apply button and then the ok button in order for any changes to take affect. I can click on any link sent to me via email and go straight to the site. I am not using Outlook Express, although Jaws will often say that. I use Window's Mail not to be confused with WLM. The tools/options are very close in OE though.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Links in e mail
Rich, another possible solution to activating a link in an E mail and Outlook express. Instead of placing the cursor on the first letter of the link, move one more character to the right and try entering or clicking on that character to activate the link. For some reason, some of us have had to do this to activate a link.
