I have found that when using the main Facebook site that the best way of 
building up a picture of the page is by using the h navigation key to jump 
through the headings. I should say at this point ai am a JAWS user. I have also 
found that when things unexpectedly don't appear to change, a screen refresh 
(JAWS Key+escape) shows whether or not the change has happened. when someone 
adds a Facebook comment to a thread on which you have commented, you may well 
receive an email message telling you this. There is really no substitute for 
looking round any Facebook page (or any other page for that matter) before 
actually doing anything.

Subject: [access-uk] Face Book Questions


1. Is there anyone using Face Book who would be prepared on answer my questions 
on or off list?
2. While I can navagate a page on Facebook, this does not give me a mental map 
of the page and possible other standard pages on Facebook.  Is this something 
someone can help with or is it just a matter of me working it out for myself?
3. I was given a link to someone's page on Facebook and clicking on the link, 
took me there.  I tabbed round and got an idea what was on the page.  There 
were certain things said and then below that there was a link to Comment.  I 
clicked on the link but nothing seemed to happen.  I then began tabbing around 
the page again to see what was going on and I realized the screen had changed 
and I think I was being asked to Login, finding the edit boxes for this, or 
actually it was my password, I had to put it, I was then put back in the 
origional page of Facebook.  then I looked for the subject being spoken of and 
the Comment link below it but now the Comment link had disappeared.  Obviously 
now that I had got in with my password, things had changed but this was where I 
was getting unstuck.
4. Say someone can tell me what to do to comment, how then do I go about seeing 
the reply to what I said on the person's page.  the reply might come from the 
person or anyone else that the person has allowed to write on their page.

I'mhappy for responses off list.

Eleanor
