I don't think you're doing anything wrong. I just tried Alt-D with JFW 10, and it worked normally. The Address bar was highlighted, and I was able to copy it to the clipboard. Try switching to JFW 9 to see if you still have trouble with the Alt-D command. If it still doesn't work, you may need to reboot your computer to restore whatever is out of whack. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Charline Smith" <charlesmi...@gmail.com> To: <blind-computing@jaws-users.com> Sent: Tuesday, December 23, 2008 9:31 AM Subject: Re: [Blind-Computing] How do you highlight the the address bar to copy it in JFW 10 >I am aware that ALT plus D should highlight the address bar but all I > get is a messege that says to set the value to zero or enter text.
