I was trying to avoid complicating what already seemed complex enough. I wasn't trying to suggest that the tab is called accessibility, though that is what it's all about. ----- Original Message ----- From: "dave_d0619" <dave_d0619@xxxxxxxxxxx>

All of the keystrokes are correct after you have run Internet Explorer.
However the tab page on which you land after you have pressed CTRL+SHIFT+TAB 
is not called "Accessibility".  The tab page is called "Advanced".

There are menu items listed in the form of a tree view.  The first item in
the tree view is "Accessibility".

Sincerely:

Dave Durber

In Internet Explorer, press alt-t for tools, then o for options. Press
shift-control-tab once to locate the accessibility options. There are

dozens

of them. The quickest way I've found for getting to pictures on/off is to
press the end key to go straight to the bottom, then arrow up quickly

twenty

times, then keep arrowing up more slowly until you hear "pictures."

Note that once you have made your choice with the spacebar, you must tab
over to the apply button, press spacebar, and again to OK.

The problem Ann describes is new to me.

If you have pictures turned off in Internet Explorer, JAWS can't see edit
fields associated with them. Under accessibility--in Windows, not JFW.

Hello All,

I have been on several web sites lately using Jaws 9 where an edit field
that was supposed to be there wasn't at least as far as Jaws was concerned 
and I was wondering if anybody could give me some ideas of settings to
change to make these edit fields show? I generally keep inline frames

hidden

except on certain web pages where I have found that I need them showing,

and

in most cases I have Jaws set where it only shows me tagged graphics, but

I

have even unloaded Jaws and loaded it with the default settings and got

the

same results in all cases, Jaws doesn't detect the edit fields that are
supposed to be there.

Thanks.
