| Hi Dean:
| This is not going to be much help for you I think, but the script that
| you are looking for is called SelectAButtonFormField which can be found
| in the Virtual.jss file.  If you open the default.jkm file from your
| shared settings folder you will find the following entry in the
| [virtual keys] section of the file.
| Control+JAWSKey+b=SelectAButtonFormField
|
| Jaws must use this entry when it determines that you are focussed on a
| html window.
|
| This function also uses a helper function which I have not been able to
| find, so I have to conclude that we cannot determine what is required to
| list all of the button controls on a page
|
| Here's a tip to help you find one of these hidden scripts.
| While you are in the application that you are interested in, turn
| keyboard help on with JawsKey + 1 on the number row,
| Now press the key combination that you want to find the script name
| for, three times quickly.
| the first time gives you the script synopsis,
| the next time gives you the script description
| and the last time says and then spells the script name.
|
| If you do not find this script in the application's script file, using
| the script list facility try using the find command to find the script
| name.  If you still do not find the script or function,  check at the
| top of the file to see what files have been specified using the include
| or use statements.

| I can't find anything that works like that anywhere. If you use insert
| +
| control + b in any program but IE you get "Adjust Braille Options" but
| when
| I used it in IE it told me there were no buttons. I could not find that
|
| keystroke listed in the keyboard manager and couldn't find a script
| that
| looked like what I was looking for either in the IE or default
| scripts.
