Hello Isaac and list:
Isaac, someone did try to post the whole BrailleNote PK manual to the list
and I had to reject it as it is too big to be posted in whole on the list.
Quoting the manual in part though is not a problem.

Rhonda,
You see, this information is very useful! dean thought someone was trying
toload a whole manual last time. But this is just a part of the manual and
contains very useful information!
Note the info on cookies and history! Very important! You don't want
thousand and thousands of cookies on your BN! It gets cumbersome at times.
You see why I said the professional computer users told me to get rid of
them? Because they talk to thousands and thousands of people and they know
what they're talking about. when I read something said by a professional
writer or a magazine, I give it careful consideration. I wouldn't accept
this kind of info from an individual. If I did my BN would eventually run
out of system memory because it would be eaten up by cookies that I was
advised to leave on there! thanks folks, but no thanks!
Isaac

I hate taking up space on the list, but I just wanted to place the html
information I could find. I don't believe it's what you're looking for,
but here it is: Dean, sorry for taking up the space, in regards to your
comment the other night about sending this type of information.
11.7.1 Open html files For opening a locally stored document, such as a
saved web page.
11.7.2 Set Current Page to Home Page. Your home page is the one that is
always presented at the URL prompt. When you first enter KeyWeb, the
home page is set to wwwpulsedatacomoukeyweb To change this to a home page
of your choice, go to that page in the usual manner, and then select this
option off the menu.
11.7.3 Go to home page No matter where you are on the internet, when you
select this option you will go straight to your home page.
11.7.4 Internet File Management The three items on this sub menu all
involve managing cached files i.e. files that save themselves to your
BrailleNote PK:
11.7.4.1 Clear Cookies Cookies are small files that are uploaded to your
computer or BrailleNote PK by web pages. They serve a wide range of
functions, but they can build up and from time to time, it pays to delete
them all. Select this option to do so.
11.7.4.2 Delete temporary files Same as with cookies, web pages upload
various files to your BrailleNote PK and they build up over time. Select
this option to delete them all.
11.7.4.3 Erase browser history This clears all of the URL's and files
that are listed in KeyWeb's history. Very useful for teachers and
students or other people who share equipment, or simply if you end up
with a lot of URL's you will never look at again.
11.7.5 Display Settings These settings determine the extra information
that will display as you read a web page.
11.7.5.1 Hide images without descriptions? YstN Visual images may have a
label called an alt tag, which describes in words what the image portrays
e.g. Child playing with Dog, back view of BrailleNote PK etc. Images
without these alt tags are not a lot of use and in this option you can
choose Y to ignore them altogether. The default setting is N. The
exception is when an image is used as a link, in which case it will be
treated as a link and not an image, regardless of how this setting is
set.
11.7.5.2 Automatically read input control prompts? YstN When this is set
to Y for yes, KeyWeb names all of the input control types as it reads
them, such as text boxes, radio buttons, check buttons, tables, etc. To
turn this feature off, press N.
11.7.5.3 Default language for web pages. If a page is written in a
foreign language such as French or German, it may have a hidden html code
that indicates this. If this is the case, and you have that language on
your BrailleNote PK, KeyWeb will automatically convert the page to that
language. If the page does not have a code marker, you can listen to it
and read it using the English setting, or change it to another language
in the usual way, again assuming you have that language on your
BrailleNote PK.
