Hi. If you want to send along the link to the transit system, I and others
can see if it really can read well. In the meantime, I prefer simple screen
layout and use of the JAWS table reading keys.
In the table, hold down alt and control wnd navigate with the arrow keys.
From your description, moving left, then down, will put you on the row
headers for the departure points. Once you get to the point you want, start
hitting alt+control+right arrow. This should read departure times.
Table reading is wonderful and liberating, and if you get yourself to use
those keystrokes, many tables will have a sudden become much more useful.

Subject: intro and question
Hi, everybody,
I'm new to the list, and I already have a question!
I'm trying to read a table. I'm assuming it is structured as follows:
In the first vertical column are the names of the stops, A, B, C, D, etc. In
the horizontal rows are the departure times.
The way JFW seems to read this is to read the vertical columns so that I
read the entire list of stops, then the entire list of the arrival times of
the first subway, then the second, then the third, etc.
This is obviously not terribly useful, and what I'd like to be able to
do is go to stop C and read across to find a departure time from that
station that suits me. How can I get JFW to read this way?
Thanks.
Alice
