Hello,
when your using the insert f7, and you want to know,
what particular link your on,
using www.jfwlite.com as an example, once the page loads, pressing insert 
f7, P for programs, then alt M, you will hear,
visited link program
and not
visited link jfwlite.com

then use your applications key, and enter on copy shortcut, and it will be 
pasted to the clipboard.

www.jfwlite.com/programs
and not
www.jfwlite.com

back ground for those confused

if i go to the jfw lite site for instance

tab to programs.

hitting the right application key should display the information about the
program link i am on and.
  not the page i am on.

so if i pick copy short cut it should copy
www.jfwlite.com/programs
and not www.jfwlite.com

unfortunately this copy short cut will not show up.


interesting comment bruce, tried your suggestion and found it works some of
the time.

does not work on the yahoo home page site but did work on jfw lite.
so add another page it does not work on.


why using right mouse click works some of the time is a mystery to me when
the right application context menu key does not.


but i was under the impression to the others that commented that this
function should work the same either way for sighted folks no matter what
they selected, right mouse click for the mouse  cursor or application
context menu key for the p c cursor.


both i thought should bring up the proper menu when no screen reader is in 
use.

because jfw used to do so i still assume this is correct.

i do not think window eyes does any thing to make this work correctly, it
works with window eyes because it works in the operating system it self.



so i am all ears if some body with a little sight can tell me differantly.
i could be wrong.


i think this bug is tied to some kind of focus issue in jfw
and it started when they started tapping into active accessability if
memory serves me.

maybe it has to do with the virtual cursor.

p s thanks for the tip, and to be honest never thought about using the
right mouse click because i am not using the mouse.
still it would be nice if it worked for both options and more consistent
for the right mouse click.
