I have found as a Jaws user, the facebook mobile site is a little more
accessible to speech software,

In the "continue" situation you outline, I would hit Continue and see what
happens. I don't know if Supernova has quick navigation keys, but I always
go round Facebook using the headings quick navigation key in JAWS.

Elenoar,

 

I don't' see a problem with those questions as List Moderator.

 

I'm more a twitter user than Facebook.  Though I have my two accounts linked
so people can follow me on one or the other and still get my status updates.

 

I could certainly take time and try and figure this stuff out but if there's
more regular FB users on who here who know please feel free to step in here.
As I'd really have to start using the product to then provide many of these
answers.

 

Now if it's info on linking FB with say AIM so you can use FB chat or
linking twitter and FB together that, I can certainly help with.

 

Barry.

I am using Supernova which is speech and magnification.  My level of
magnification means that I only see a very small part of the screen at any
one time.  Can someone explain to me the layout of what is on a page of
Facebook when I have logged in?  I know I can keep tabbing round to find out
but I just found it a little confusing the other day.  I am unclear too
where it says about friends and the ones I have accepted or not accepted.
When I wanted to go ahead and click to accept someone the button said
Continue rather than accept so that confused me.  Wondered if I had to click
on this continue button and if that then brought up another screen.  I just
seemed to be loosing myself on the page.  Finally, there was the option to
send someone an e-mail.  I noted this came up as usual e-mail and I could
put in Subject and even an attachment.  Stupid question here but when the
e-mail is sent, does it give my e-mail address or does it give my Facebook
Name only.  How large an attachment can I send the person?  Where do I look
for the reply to that e-mail?  Do I have to go back in to Facebook or will
such an e-mail come to me in the usual way?  If the person choose not to
reply to me and to ignore me is there some way that Facebook will let me
know that my e-mail is being ignored but has been received, otherwise I
might be at danger of sending the person an e-mail again when they don't
want it.  Hope these questions are OK?

 

Eleanor
