Rich,
You're welcome, on the Wikipedia thing. I knew the basics but was fairly
astonished to learn the scope of that network since its beginnings. On our
local one, they like to say "we're operating out of a crummy little building
in culver City" )that's right next to Santa Monica), and they mean to sound
ironic (they're probably in an office tower as big as Tony-MGM headquarters
in the same area) like the whole thing's kind of a joke about being small
and personal instead of corporate. It's all ironic posturing. Weird,
actually, such irony. But that would require an essay on about four decades
of social and corporate change.
One question. Two, actually. How did you learn that keystroke? And then, how
did you figure out what to label those buttons? I know Web sites with
clusters or lists of buttons or links just labeled 1, 2, 3 and the like.
Whereas they surely must be labeled with some visible non HTML wording
either right on them or nearby. but how did you figure out what the buttons
were?
Thanks.
they're sticking in your fac3e as a sort of joke because, yes, they're
we'd43e

Hi,
thanks to all for the help with this.
Gary, the usage of insert + control + tab is what I was looking for. I was
able t lable one of the buttons that I knew for sure and it worked just like
it is supposed to.
Yardbird, thanks for the link to the wicki article. pretty good reading.

Rich,
You can use the Custom Label option to label elements such as graphical
links and buttons on a web page if you are not able to get the webmaster to
label them properly. Navigate to the element you want to label and either
press Insert+F2 to find the Custom Label option in the list, or press
Insert+Control+Tab to bring up the Custom Label dialog. Type a name and
press Enter. Of course, you will need to determine what the link or button
does before you can label it.
