I didn't ever offer an opinion as to which of these two Find functions was the better one. Please understand that. As for interrogating Freedom Scientific out of curiosity about why there are a couple of Find commands, etc., that isn't something I feel the need to do. I took the chance of broaching the topic here because I thought it might be interesting to others and I might be responded to coherently by someone in possession of knowledge precisely about this object of my curiosity. but that hasn't been the result, as you may be aware. Now I'm going to quite responding to any further messages with this subject line. Thank you again for your interest.

It works just as well or better in the IE environment. It is a universal JAWS command, whereas ctrl-f for Find is neither a JAWS nor windows universal command. However, As I said, if it could be put to another more specific Find use, in Internet Explorer, well, I might go with that. And as it is, it is not the same as the Ctrl-F Virtual Find. The best people to go to about real or perceived duplication of functionality are, after all, Freedom Scientific themselves. Every user has or develops their own way of doing things. With that, their come opinions on what's best. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Yardbird" <yardbird@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Sunday, March 20, 2005 7:10 PM Subject: Re: find command with IE And why is that? ----- Original Message ----- >From: "Flor Lynch" <florlync@xxxxxx> To: <jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Sunday, March 20, 2005 10:50 AM Subject: Re: find command with IE I believe that JAWS would be the poorer without the Insert-Ctrl-F Find command being also available in Internet Explorer. (Unless it were to be redefined to a more specific Find command.) ----- Original Message ----- >From: "Yardbird" <yardbird@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Sunday, March 20, 2005 6:17 PM Subject: Re: find command with IE Dave, I think that's a distinction that doesn't really matter. When I do a Find on a Web page, what I'm looking for is some text within a newspaper article or something of the same sort. I don't see what it matters whether the find command is looking in Jaws virtual buffer or on the original web page. To me, it's simply looking for material that's been presented on that page. Thank you for your interpretation and God bless you and yours.
