K,
Got it. A bit of a chore, but you've climbed from 56th place to 55th.
Interesting that I don't appear to be able to vote with two different E-Mail
addresses, either. Perhaps I've got a cookie now that prevents this. If I
can, I'll try to vote tonight from my DAW computer.
Good luck!
Dave

Dear Dave and all who are having problems voting in the Yo-Yo- Ma I have
just gone through the process entirely in keystrokes. Do the following
exactly!
1. Click on the initial link at the bottom of my original post.
2. Wait for JAWS to start speaking. This website is very slow so be
patient.
3. When JAWS finishes saying the number of links, I believe it's 84, press
the letter n once. JAWS should say, "Kevin's DNP Variations(Piano)
4. Down arrow once. JAWS should say "graphic 2212/56__cropped__profile.
5. Down arrow once more. JAWS shyould say "430."
6. Down arrow once more and JAWS should say, "Vote for this submission."
7. Click Enter.
8. You will be taken to a page that explains how to vote if you don't have
an indaba music account. You will have to provide your e-mail address.
I'll explain how tot do that in the next step. Indaba will confirm your
vote by sending you an e-mail to the address specified. Please continue
reading for the next instructions.
9. Assuming you clicked ENTER in instruction 7 above, you will be taken to
a page that explains how to vote as a non-member. I've had two different
experiences with this specific action. Wait patiently for JWWS to speak.
Depending on which of two possible voting pages you get, pressing f for
forms mode will either put you directly in the e-mail address field with the
word "null" in the field, or you will arrive in a blank address field. If
JAWS doesn't immediately explain how to vote as a non-member, you are
probably in the address field with the word "null" in it. Simply typing
your address will not remove the word null from the field. So, Please
delete all characters from the adress field before typing your address.
10. Carefully type in your address and then, if you wish to prevent Indaba
from soliciting you in the future, tab three times. JAWS will spout a long
message about "function, match this queery,user select, bla bla blaPress the
space bar to uncheck this box. JAWS will not say "unchecked." It will only
say space.
11. Shift Tab twice to go past the cancel button to the vote button. Hit
enter. You will immediately receive an e-mail confirming your vote. I
haven't done this part because I voted as a member and used the limited
vision I have to make sure I did it right.
I've done my best to give you the most specific instructions of
which I'm capable. If any of you have any problems or questions, please
don't hesitate to write be off list at
kevjazz@xxxxxxxxxx
Again, I really really appreciate your taking the time to do this.
I'm moving up the ranks from 143 to 58 at last count. You could make the
difference.
Thanks,
Kevin
