Hello Friends,
I have been following this thread, and finally decided I need to tell you
what works for me.
When wanting to use a "link", I always first use the key combination JAWS
Key, (the 0 key on the numb pad) and hit the F7 key to first "activate" a
link, then tab and then Enter.
This always works for me!
Some links do not need to be "activated", but as I said I have found that
many links do first need to be "activated", and for those that do not, well,
the key combination I use before hitting Enter does not affect the link.
So then JAWS Key F7 then Tab and then Enter
With Best Regards,

Subject: [Blind-Computing] entering on links;
I should have made myself more clear in that I wasn't referring to links in
an email program but rather links found in a website. Since I wrote to the
list yesterday, I have discovered that I can open the link by hitting the
right mouse key and selecting open; then if I use the left mouse key I can
open the link in question. My question then is what is wrong with my
settings such that I have to use the mouse buttons rather than the enter
key; no more than a month ago I could hit the enter key and things would
work just fine. This kind of stuff makes me hate computers.
Dan
