Greetings, Michael:
When did this problem first occur? I use Hotmail and MSN regularly (both on
the Web and through Outlook 2002) with no difficulties. If you are
attempting to attach a file, before starting or replying to a Hotmail
message *via the Web,* of course, you will experience trouble with that
feature. However, once you begin composing your message, enter the Links
List. Go to the "Attach" link, followed by the "File" link. From that point,
using some Quick Key commands should allow you to locate the correct edit
box with a Browse button right below that. Either type in the exact file
path or use the Browse button to open your folders for finding the desired
file to attach. Pressing ENTER displays that full file name and path in the
edit box. Go to the Links List again and find the "OK" link to upload the
attachment or "OK and attach another" link to do this for more than one
file. Being on the Web means you must attach each file one at a time.
Therefore, use the "OK" link to attach the last file to your multiple
attachments list and return to your message for sending. When ready to Send,
finding the "Send" link and activating it with ENTER finishes the job.
Hopefully, you are not experiencing any strange glitches with the Web based
Hotmail interface, as they some times pop up, but are not long lasting.
Hope this helps,
Wade Hemmelrick

Subject: Hotmail Question
Hello All,
I'm hoping someone out there can help me out. I'm using the Hotmail web
site and I'm having trouble figuring out how to add a file attachment.
There's a graphic and a link that supposedly will let you add a file
attachment but it doesn't do anything when you click on it. I've tried
doing this with the virtual cursor, Jaws cursor, and the links list.
Nothing works. Does anyone have any idea on how to do this? I have to
admit that I'm finding that a lot of these web based email clients aren't
very accessible with Jaws. I much prefer to use Outlook Express. The only
reason I'm using it now is for a test I'll be taking tomorrow. In any case,
Hotmail does seem to be the most accessible out of all the web based email
clients I've tried. With others like Yahoo Mail and Mail.Com, Jaws can't
even recognize the darn edit box where you type in your message! Anyhow,
any help would be appreciated in regards to adding file attachments.
Thanks!
Michael
