Hi Dave, You can add new web pages to the Bookmarks toolbar in Firefox using standard keyboard techniques. Press Control-D after opening the page you wish to add to the Bookmarks toolbar. This opens the Edit/Add Bookmark pop-up dialog in Firefox. Next, edit the Bookmarks name in the provided edit box if needed. Press Tab and you should land in the Folders combo box. Use Up or Down Arrow to select Bookmarks toolbar. Finally, press Enter or Tab to the Done button and activate it. If you wish to access any of the bookmarks from the Bookmarks toolbar, you can do so using the Bookmarks menu. For example, press Alt-B to open the Bookmarks menu, Down Arrow to the Bookmarks toolbar pull down and press Enter. You can use Up/Down Arrows or first letter navigation to make your selection from the pull down menu. Please note that these techniques utilize the keyboard accessible Add Bookmark dialog (Control-D) and traditional menu bar in Firefox to manage and interact with the same bookmarks that a re displayed in the Bookmarks toolbar. I am not aware of any way to interact directly with the Bookmarks toolbar using the Mouse hot keys in Window-Eyes. With that being said, I don't see any real advantage or time savings in using the mouse driven approach but maybe you have other ideas about this. Regarding bookmarklet's, I have two of these installed in Firefox, both are web accessibility tools. For me, each of these bookmarklets have corresponding pull down menus under the Tools menu (Alt-T) in Firefox. The bookmarklet's pull down menu under Tools, provides a completely accessible way to interact with the bookmarklet's features and functions. I don't know if all bookmarklet's do this but apparently the ones that are well designed do. I hope you find this information helpful. Kind Regards, Marc

Also, can I use bookmarklet's with window eyes? They seem to be rather popular. I feel that we are at a disadvantage by not being able to access toolbars. Often times, now, when I try to route the pointerto a Firefox window, I received the message "unable to route pointer" moving by clip yields only silence. any thoughts? thanks, dave _______________________________________________ Any views or opinions presented in this email are solely those of the author and do not necessarily represent those of Ai Squared.
