Hi all, just wondering if others have had the same experience as me
here.
I find the control-F find facility within JAWS 6 Internet Explorer to be
rather flaky. Particularly annoying as I use this function a lot,
mainly as a time-saver to avoid navigation on web pages.
For example, often I'll tap a search string into the field, press enter
and it tells me that the string isn't on the page ... even if the page
is littered with that string!
Example 2: Sometimes when I hit control F on a web page, write my string
and hit enter, what it actually does is activate the link that I was
nearest to or hovvering over on the webpage when I hit control-F in the
first place. Doubly annoying that often links at the top of a page are
advert banners.
Has anyone else had similar experiences with control-F screenfind?
