Debbie,

I'm complaining about the absence of a blank line immediately above the heading, not below. I used to have one there, with 7.0, and don't, with 7.1. And, without a blank line above the heading, I think it's rather confusing to tell where one track listing end and the next heading begins, while quickly reading through the list, with the arrow keys.

Dana, and now tell me again how you are navigating this?
If I press H (or 3 when I get down to them) for a heading and then arrow
down I get the same thing in Jaws 7.0 and Jaws 7.1.
i get for example
Barenaked Ladies - All Their Greatest Hits 1991-2001
Then if I arrow down I get
1. The Old Apartment
I don't get a blank line.
Debbie

I'm not quite sure how it appears to a sighted visitor. That's something
I'll investigate the next time I have some sighted assistance, to go over it
with me. But, in general, I would like my pages to be useful, and easily
readable, by any visitor, whether blind or sighted, and, as a matter of my
own pride in workmanship, I'd like to be sure I know how to so design them.


Blessed Be,

Dana

Ah, I get it. I'll go to the page just to look, anyway, but your
description explains it well. I have only one memory to draw on of a
similar page navigation situation where lack of blank spaces the way
you're
describing confused me so much that I dropped my subscription to a
particular online journal, because the table of contents for each issue
didn't leave blank lines between the article titles and their subheads and
or authors' names, and however hard I tried to keep clearly in mind the
sequence, so I could figure out which article was rotten by which of the
issues several writers, I kept getting confused because the items weren't
separated by blank lines from each other.


But I'll admit, I wasn't navigating then in terms of headings, just
arrowing
down through the table of contents. Even now, were I to return to that
page, I don't think I'd be using headings for going through the list. But
what counts here is the mess it can make of a list such as the one you're
describing to not have blank lines separating the listed items clearly
from
each other.


Hope you have some success fixing this. By the way, since you say it's
essentially your own Web page, is it that you want to change the Jaws
behavior so that you can tell other Jaws users how to do it? Do you also
hope to host many sighted visitors, and do you think that the list looks
that way to them, just a mush of text without any breaks?

Yardbird,

Yes, I'm talking about html headings; sorry I misspoke.

As an example of what I'm concerned about, go to my online discography:
http://members.cox.net/dsleslie2/cds.shtml

There, you'll see that the track listing for each album is preceded by a
level 3 heading, giving the title of the album. But, between any such
heading and the track listing immediately above, there is no longer a
blank
line, as there used to be with 7.0. I find this a bit confusing, when
reading through the discography with the up and down arrows, and not just
jumping from heading to heading. I'd like to revert to the 7.0 behavior,
if
I can figure out how to do so.

Blessed Be,

Dana

P.S. to my first post I just sent.  You say "header," and I thought you
meant "heading," which is a page design element.  Do you actually mean
"header?"  What's a header on a Web page?  Or aren't you talking about
the
Web?

Genuinely confused, now.

Yes, Debbie. I think that's what I had in mind; I remember coming across that text, before. But, I'm pretty sure I read it in one of the ins-F1 dialogues, for an option somewhere in Configuration Manager. But, at least, I can use the options in the ins-V dialogue, to experiment with them, to see their effects.

Any luck on discovering how I can get back the blank line that used to
appear above an HTML header?

Thanks.

Dana

Dana, I don't remember that being in configuration manager.
The jaws help says for example:
When reading a Web page with the Virtual Cursor, JAWS places each link
on
its own line, even if the document visually presents the link on a line
with
other text or additional links.
Tables. JAWS reads the cells in order from left to right and behaves as
if
each table cell begins on a new line.
So jaws doesn't ever actually change the way the page is displayed
except
for the way it "interprets" and "stores" it in the virtual buffer.
Could you be thinking of documentation presentation? Screen layout
versus
simple layout? (insert V dialog).
Both 7.0 and 7.1 say JFWLite Home Page (heading 1) followed by Programs
Page.
Debbie

I remember that, when I initially looked through the new Configuration Manager, I found a section to control whether HTML links are each displayed on a separate line (as has always been the case, up until 7.1), and whether cells in a table are each displayed on a separate line. Now I want to experiment with these settings, but I can't find my way back to them. can anyone give me directions?

Also, I don't remember seeing a control for this, but does anyone know
of
one: Previously, there was always a blank line above any header, in an
HTML
document. Now, in 7.1, headers follow immediately upon the previous
text,
with no blank line in-between. I'd like to restore the previous
behavior,
and regain those blank lines. does anyone know how to accomplish this?

Thanks.

Blessed Be,

Dana
