the jaws cursor and the invisible cursor (jaws cursor key twice rapidly) will tell you what things really look at, and the use of templates is a good way to have them turn out decently.

Thank You. That will help. I may have questions about how to place things on certain parts of the page but I will see if I can figure it out first.

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.

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.
