You can get information about the position of a certain piece of text with Jaws, using the jaws cursor (the mouse cursor), then pressing alt+Delete. This will tell you the x/y coordinates.

Subject: Programming Webpages Using JAWS


At work I am learning to use APEX to program web pages. When programming web pages using JAWS, how do you know where you are putting the information on the page so that it looks good to the sighted user. For example how do you know where you are placing your comboboxes and radio buttons, etc. Also how do you know where you are placing your text? When I read web pages with JAWS I often do not understand how the page is laied out unless a sighted user explains it even if I understand the information.
