Hi there,Wehn you are at the gadget, press Application key then go to Options. A the thing that appears (you need to press TAB multiple times) with an edit field, just type your city or zip code. You need to pres ENtER to activate forms ode. When you are done, press Numpad Plus (CAPS Lock+semicolon on laptop) then press TAB to go to OK button.

I've always had this same probelm and still haven't worked it out although I know Rick managed to do it on one of his podcasts once, all be it sounding a bit fiddly.Peter -------------------------------------------------- From: "Michael Malver" <mmalver@xxxxxxxx> Sent: Monday, January 07, 2008 3:44 AM To: <jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: jaws and the weather gadget on vista's sidebarI am trying to use the weather gadget with the windows sidebar. By default, the weather comes up for Washington. If I click the "weather button" then shift f10, I get into the options. I can type in the city I want, and hit "search." When I do this, I see thecity name has changed to "Minneapolis, MN" I have tried "New Brighton," andwhen I did that, a listbox appeared, from which I was able to select "NewBrighton, MN." Again, I saw the option select properly because the name of the city for which the weather is being retrieved appears at the top of theoptions page.I can select celcius, or farenheight. I tab to OKAY, and click it, but mysettings don't seem to save. I am using jaws 9.0.519. I know people have used this with previousversions of jaws, but has anyone successfully changed the city for which theweather is presented using jaws nine? If so, any ideas where I could be going wrong?
