Good Day:
I can give instructions for the BT keyboard. When you are on
any web page in the browser, press backspace with o to find the
Internet Options. Space down the list until you find an option
that says something like "Review Browser Scripting Setting", and
press enter on that option. You will then be presented with a
prompt that says "scripting disabled?" This is one of those usual
yes or no prompts, and, as you might think, you answer in the
affirmative to disable scripting and access Wikipedia. As a sort
of addendum to my note below, I must clarify the thing about
searching. As with most search fields on the internet, you simply
find the field or edit control, type in the text for which you
would like the site to search and press enter.

Subject: [Braillenote] Accessing Wikipedia on the Apex
Good Day:
For those interested in accessing Wikipedia with the Apex,
there is actually a solution to the dreadfully slow loading time.
As with web braille, you must disable browser scripting settings.
If I knew the QT commands, I would give full instructions, but
I'll leave that to the experts on the list. Once browser
scripting is turned off, the site loads at an acceptable speed.
Note that even those the search button does not have a marker
denoting it as such, it will work.
