Hi, You should be able to rout your jaws cursor to your virtual cursor then issue an get line command to detmenr it the cursor is on the option you want If you are looking for a certain string define a string constant with the text string you are looking for. Then use the if command to check to see if that string is the line of text you are on. Hope this helps. -----Original Message----- From: jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Captain 357 Sent: Monday, January 19, 2004 4:17 AM To: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: Get virtual PC cursor position Pete, Have you tried using the invisible cursor? This should keep the screen from scrolling and may be more accurate. Unfortunately, the only way to test this will be to write the scripts, run them, and see how it works out, versus using manual keystrokes to test parts of the script. If all else fails, post to the Jaws scripting list. I'm sure some of the experts there could help you out. If you need the info for this list, let me know and I'll post it up.

I'm still having some trouble getting it to work. Here's what I do. I route the JAWS cursor to the PC cursor on the web page. The JAWS cursor winds up in the wrong spot though, because the browser window scrolls to a new location whenever the JAWS cursor moves. The cursor ends up the scroll distance below the current PC cursor position. I have also tried routing the cursor, calling GetCursorCol and GetCursorRow to see if it gives different coordinate. Unfortunately, it doesn't, so I can't use a MoveTo after getting the position to put the cursor in the right spot. Things would be simpler if I could just use LeftMouseButton, but that isn't what I need for this application. What I need is the correct screen coordinates or client coordinates of the PC cursor position, not just a link activated. I plan to pass the coords to a COM object that I've created in my JAWS script. The external object retrieves the HTML element at the given point. I could even forgo using points if I could just tell which object the PC cursor is currently over, but the only function that comes close is ieGetFocus and that doesn't work with the PC cursor. It only gives the index of the element that's last been clicked or received the focus with a Tab key press. Any other suggestions?
