folks, we cannot stress enough the collaboritiveness of vo as jacob points out here. It is soooooo worth the shortcomings with a sub scrit s that it stops alll others in there tracks. Here it is again in case you missed it: 

"...A screen reader should be a tool, not an alternate interface."

Good morning,
That's to bad. I have to say that there are a lot of things about VO that I like, but web navigation is almost completely useless to me. It's slow, not very featurefull, and based on past experience is not very intuitive. I don't think that I'll ever find something that I like as well as JAWS for web navigation, but VO beats JAWS in other areas. 

That being said, I do love the VO + I command.

Thanks,
Everett

Hi Everett
There's no dedicated table navigation commands, as such. However, if you turn group mode on and thus render the page very close to its visual layout (this is how I keep mine set as I like this approach) then the vo+arrows will navigate tables as you'd expect them to, rather than in the linear fashion you get with dom mode.

Good morning,
Are there voiceover table navigation commands comparable to the Alt + Control + Arrow keys in JAWS and if so is there a way to get them to work on a web page in Webkit? 

Thanks,
Everett
The major difference between a thing that might go wrong and a thing that cannot possibly go wrong is that when a thing that cannot possibly go wrong goes wrong it usually turns out to be impossible to get at or repair.
