Hi Iain,
 
My apologies, I am definitely going senile and had been using Wikipedia
rather than Wiktionary as you probably suspected.
 
I have now tried Wiktionary and get the same results as you get.
 
You have now stirred my curiosity and I'll be doing some messing about with
it to see if I can find anything.
 
Apologies for the red herring! (Smile)
 
Jamie

It works with Wikipedia but not with Wiktionary. Try typing in a word like
fight and Research It won't find it. However, you will find the word if you
look on the website. I haven't found any word in Wiktionary using Research
It. I have the latest version of JAWS 11.

Hi Ian,
 
I tried a quick search for "Bob Marley" and it worked pretty well.  It seems
to bring up a summary of the hit and offers a link to the full article as
well.  I had to use Up and Down Arrow to be sure that I was on the text of
the hit but it did work as expected.
 
Have you made sure you have the most up-to-date version of Jaws?
 
Jamie

Alex,
Every word I key in the results are always the same. It says "Wiktionary
searched for ... and got no results." Are you getting results from
Wiktionary?

Hi

I have used the Research It facility from time to time and have found it to
be of some use. However, the one element I have failed to have any success
with is Wiktionary. Every word I have done a search on is not found. I know
that entries for these words exist as I have found them on the Wiktionary
website. I am running the latest version of JAWS 11 with Windows Vista. Is
the Research It rule set for Wiktionary broken? Is there anything I can do
to get this element of Research It to work as it should?

 

Iain
