Subject: JAWS navigation question?
Thanks for the previous help on the last question. I am trying to figure
out how JAWS navigates thru HTML docs within a site. I am using JAWS with
my companie's site and trying to make it site-impaired freindly. Right now
JAWS seems to get lost when I'm tabbing thru navigation tabs.
1) It looses focus and then I'm not sure where I am in the navigation
2) It keeps wrapping around the nav bar section and won't enter the main
form content section of the page.
3) Footer stuff seems to be bypassed and not read
Is there some development standards out there somewhere on JAWS for
developers working on sites and using JAWS for testing? In other words,
what JAWS and other software like it use internally to read and navigate a
site?
If any body can help, I'd really appreciate it. Kim

Hi Kim, as someone said, insert f6 will bring up the list of headings,
then
you can use alt 1 through 6 to have the list display just that level heading
in the list. Then enter to go to that heading at that point on the page.
When reading a page, y You can press H to move from heading to heading and
then just the number (1 through 6) to move from one heading to the next
heading just on that level.
It says in the jaws help system that it recognizes headings one through six.
For a good demonstartion of all this, go to the surf's up html challenge on
FS and go to the headings section,

Subject: JAWS method of reading plain text or headers???
I am working on making our online service more compliant for visually
impaired people. There is alot of forms in it but there are some headers
that Jaws does not seem to want to read. Is there a method or keyboard
command that Jaws can read headers or users can find headers or basic text
and have Jawss read it?
