Emily,

Since you're able to locate articles, here's how to read their substance
most conveniently.

1. click on the link to the article and wait for it to load. Insert-numpad 3
will confirm.

2. Go to the top of the page and search for the word "print." almost always
you'll land right away on the print link. If not, press F3 to repeat the
search until you do. Click on the link.

3. On the next page, press h for header to arrive at the article's headline.
On this print-format page, you can read the entire article without all the
distractions you mention.

Hello everyone,

Does anyone have some tips for navigating the New York Times website?

I'm a novice JAWS user and find the Times website almost impossible. I seem
to get all sorts of navigation buttons and can't go straight to the content.
If I click on a link for an article, a new window opens with the article,
but again Jaws reads all around the window, but not the main content, or
when I use N to start reading the article, after one paragraph Jaws will
veer off to a graphic or an ad instead of reading the text straight through.

A step by step guide would be welcome...

Thanks,
Emily
