Hi Flor,
The links you mentioned  are very useful to know
when the opportunity to use them is there!  
I am using Jaws 4.02 and while I press the letter, n, it does nothing!
The virtual cursor is the plus key, I think?  
I wonder is there a way say, by a keystroke even that one could jump down a few 
lines in a page possibly avoiding at least most of the links?
I would appreciate any further feedback on this. 
Have a good week,
Tony Sweeney.

  You might find a Jump To Content link or a Skip navigation link, or a link 
with similarly indicative wording,  near the top of a Web page.  Use such a 
link if present.  Or, hit the letter n [a JAWS keystroke in virtual cursor 
mode] until you get to the non-linked text you want.

    Hi All
    Could someone take me out of my misery and please if you could let me know
    how I can go to the body of a web page without always having to go through
    the links menu?
    It is necessary of course initially I suppose when going to a website but to
    have tlinks list  coming up all the time is a real pain
    in the proverbial!
      Getting there on the web but ...
      I am using Jaws
    All the best
    Tony Sweeney
