I'll thank you not to be so presupposing and arrogant as to change my
messages. Here is the information you requested, as posted fifteen minutes
ago.
How do I change the setting for speaking OnMouseOver information in JAWS?
Answer:
HTML allows the author of a page to set an OnMouseOver attribute for most
HTML elements that runs specified code, such as JavaScript or Visual Basic
Script,
when a visitor moves the mouse pointer over the HTML element. Often this
is used to momentarily display text, graphics, or links.
Beginning with the release of Version 5.1 or later, this option is set by
default so that no OnMouseOver information is spoken. To change this
setting,
you need to go to the HTML page in the Speech and Sounds Manager and
select the appropriate radio button.
1. Press INSERT+F2, select Configuration Manager, and press ENTER.
2. Press ALT+S to open the Set Options menu and press M to choose Speech
and Sounds Manager.
3. Press ALT+E to activate the Edit Current Scheme button.
4. Press CTRL+SHIFT+TAB until you move to the HTML tab.
5. In the List View, use the arrow keys to select OnMouseOver.
6. Press TAB once to move to the selection of radio buttons.
7. Use the UP or DOWN ARROW to select either Speak HTML Attribute, Play
Sound or Ignore.
8. Press TAB until you move to the OK button, then press SPACEBAR.
9. Press ALT+F4 to close the Configuration Manager. Press SPACEBAR on the
Yes button when JAWS asks if you want to save your current settings.
