Ah, thank you. Now there's a use for that feature! It seems slightly 
unfortunate that we should have to do this, but it's better than hunting and a 
lot fewer keystrokes, potentially.

  You can use the place markers in IE. Press ctrl+k when you are in the desired 
place. go to winamp, and when you're back to IE press k to return to the place 
you've been. When you're on a new place, press ctrl+k again to place a marker 
on that place. Go to winamp again and when you're back to IE press k again. 
When you close the page the marker is gone so be careful. You can place marker 
everytime before going to winamp.

    Hello everyone.

    I have a question whose answer perhaps is rather straightforward, but I'm 
at a loss at the moment. I'm currently in the process of organising huge piles 
of CDs into some semblance of order. many of these are copies of albums or 
compilations that I"ve made over the years, and some of them have truncated 
tracks, so I've been checking the track times with music databases and so on. 
This means that I've been alt-tabbing back and forth between Internet Explorer 
and winamp, where I have the tracks on each CD queued. What's irritating me, 
however, is that every time I return to IE to check the next track length, the 
virtual cursor is not in the position it was in before I switched over to 
winamp, but at the top of the webpage instead. It should be really easy to 
simply switch back and forth and keep the cursor in its previous position, so I 
can simply hit the down arrow to hear the length of the next album track and 
compare it with what exists on my copy. What am I missing? I'm using Jaws 9 and 
Internet Explorer 7. Thanks in advance.

    JM
