No=20
He said in his original message that from the insert f7 list links
dialog you could only left click on a link in other words just use the
activate link button.  I then informed him that this was not true.  He
could use move to link witch I assumed that any one using this dialog in
the past would have seen to move to the link and then do what ever else
he wished to do with it. =20
Hope this helps.=20

Jim
I'm still very confused by the wording of your message here.  Let me=20
demonstrate...

Huh?
I'm still extremely confused by what you're trying to say here.


when you say: "you are not just select move
to link and go from there", are you trying to say that, in your
experience=20
with JAWS, that you do not have to first press insert plus f7 which
opens=20
up the select a link list, and then tab over to the move to link button
and=20
press the space bar to get to the save target as...option, or are you=20
trying to say that
left clicking on the link instead gets you to the save target as option?
when I say right clicking, I am talking about hitting the context menu
key,=20
which is located 2 keys to the left of the left arrow key. I'm not=20
referring to the right mouse button. On my system, the menu items i
spoke=20
about,
back, forward, save background as..., set as background, copy
background,=20
set as desktop item and all the rest, appear in the menu simply by
pressing=20
the context menu key when focused on the link to download an mp3 file,
or=20
another file to download.  To get to the save target as and other items
I=20
must first bring up the list of links with insert plus f7. then, when
when=20
focused on the link to download the mp3 file, I must then tab over to
the=20
move to link buttonn and press the space bar, which then focuses JAWS on

the actual  link.  This is clearly a focus issue because JAWS is able to

see the link and read it properly, but it's still focused on the=20
other  areas of the screen when it comes to actually focusing on the
right=20
portion of the screen.
So it's a focus issue. This is how it is in my experience, and what
myself=20
and others are trying to say is, we wish we didn't have to take that
extra=20
step I.e. pressing the move to link button in order to get to the save=20
target as option when Window-eyes lets you get to this option simply by=20
hitting the context menu key. No finding a button to press, it simply=20
brings you right there.
