Hi, Yardbird;
Yes I'm well aware what the alt key does.
I brought up my homepage, first press insert+A I heard the page address
spoken. then? I pressed alt+A I heard, add to favorites. and, if I down
arrow from there; I hear,
Add to Favorites...
Organize Favorites...
Links
Microsoft bCentral
MSN.com
Radio Station Guide
Freedom Scientific Home Page
Sight Connections. Accessible Internet Radio, Ne...
JFWLite Home Page
Freedom Games
so? if I were to hit enter on add to favorites, it would give me a
opportunity to ad that particular link to my favorites.
