Greetings This is unique to Window-Eyes. Personally I don't mind what appears to be the GW Micro philosophy with respect to what WE reports to us.
WE jumps to the heading which is often not on the same line as the link. Sometimes it is visually obvious where the headings are while in other times there is no indication where they are, because of the way the Web page designers used the style sheets. The other text to speech programs, JFW and SA for example, will move focus to the link when using the assigned hot keys to move by heading. Personally a major reason why I stick to WE as my primary text to speech software is the fact that it allows me to work in a much closer manner as my sighted co-workers than the other products with which I dabble. Granted they have come a little closer which might be a result of GW Micro's leadership in that arena. For some this might not be an issue, but for me it is due to the type of work and occasional training sessions I put on or have to attend.

Why, when I press h for the heading on a webpage, does it not go to the link if the page contains a link? Is there some sort of way to just jump to that link instead of pressing the tab key. Yes, I know, the links list with iinsert tab, but if I'm on a page browsing by heading, as I often am, why can't I just press enter on the link. Window-eyes reads it, but it's not focused to press enter on. Am I making sense? -- Dave C. Bahr If you reply to this message it will be delivered to the original sender only.
