[macvoiceover] Re: searching for text on a web page

Hi Marty,
Thanks. As I said, i sort of stumbled upon the CommandF option, and clearly that isn't a good one. :) I will play around with both VO-F and the item chooser. Thanks for the warning that it may not always work, nice to know not to be thrown if that happens. 
Best,
Donna

Hi Donna, try using vo f to search for the text you want, though since there is no virtual cursor, except for the voice over cursor, the command may not always work, and if it doesn't, you'll just hear a bleep sound, but just type your text in the edit box, and press enter, and it should give you the first instance of that text, and this has nothing what so ever to do with the other operating system, for the other irritated poster, we all in a sense, had to start over with the mac, and we wouldn't have wanted people getting irritated with us, if we asked questions the way Donna is asking them.

donna I'm sorry but i am getting real tired of your pointless
questions on this list.

Please stop asking questions that relate to windows on the mac.
thanks.
