Grant,
Thank you for all these tips. I was actually aware of all of them with the
exception of the fast searching.
I suppose that I could set up fast searching with the right command key,
then simply just attach it to an activity which I assign to Safari.app? If
so, then beautiful! This
In Fire fox 35, an option regarding Tracking was introduced. Can this tracking
be done in Safari? I see the reading List option in Safari’s menubar. Thank you.

Hey everyone, I'm wondering if anyone else has seen this. This is with
mac os version 10.10.3 and the newest version of safari. On some pages,
voiceover will say something like menu, 7 items, and no matter what you
do, will not navigate that page. Tabbing does nothing, you can navigate
down
Yes, I've experienced this behaviour to my utter dismay. Sometimes it helps to
change to group navigation mode to overcome this problem. I have no idea what
happens but it does for instance the national lottery page in the UK. It makes
it impossible to navigate. Interestingly, if you toggle

Eileen,
It's actually the right command key that does the quick search navigation,
not the right option key, so you should be fine.
If you're concerned about globally across the OS not being able to use your

Hi Chris,
Thanks for setting this old brain straight. I'll have to take a look in the VO

On another note, I'm going to start a new thread regarding the activity

You’re right, web 2.0 (and ARIA, by extension) are the spawns of Satan however
there are definitely times when VO actually does miss content out entirely,
especially in certain multi-level tables. I dunno why this is, but there’s
never a problem with any other browser / screen reader combo.
Sometimes it helps to disable styles, which you can do from the develop menu in
the menu bar. If that isn’t showing up, hit CMD+COMMA for Safari’s preferences
and navigate to the advanced tab. There is an option to show the development
menu there.

No question. group is a much more intuitive way to navigate than dom, taking
full advantage of the mac system of navigation as it does.

For fast searching, set the right command key as control key and use whatever
first letter you want to search for on a site.
For example, in google, if the first page of your search is not satisfactory,
type right command 2 and you will go straight to page 2 link.
Another example
I believe Yuma is referring to VoiceOver’s fast searching feature. This can be
enabled from within VoiceOver utility (press CTRL+OPTION+F8 to get in there).
The setting you want, “enable fast searching”, is in the navigation section.
Once you turn this on, you could, for example, go to
