Jerold,
Looks like you get the gold star for the day...
I don't know why the */%^ that didn't work for me
previously.
I have loaded and unloaded Fire Fox about three times and it
seems to be working fine, the Google accessible search comes
up every time.
Thanks my friend.
TNX
Larry

Larry,
I just followed the instructions I provided in my previous
message, and had no problem making the accessible version of
Google my Firefox home page. Be sure you enter the URl
exactly as shown below into the Home Page edit field of
Main. The easiest way to do this is to copy and paste.
After you tab to the Okay button and hit Space, close
Firefox and relaunch it. This should bring up the
accessible version of Google as your new home page. Also, be
sure that the first option in Main is set to Home Page.

Jerold,
I tried that in the past and it works until I close Fire
Fox. Upon reopening the browser it defaults to the original
Google home page.

Hi Larry,
To make the accessible version of Google your Firefox home
page, access the Options submenu of the Firefox tools menu
and arrow to Main. Tab to the Home Page edit field and type
in or or copy and paste the Url below into the edit field.
Tab to Okay, and you should be good to go.

Hi Folks,
I am using jaws 9 with Fire Fox .current and the WebVisum
plug in.
I have Google accessible search selected as my home page and
it works well with IE-7. The problem occurs when I load Fire
Fox and it insists on defaulting to the standard Google
home-page.
Obviously this isn't the end of the world however I would
like to maintain the accessible search version of Google if
possible.
TNX
Larry
