Believe Alt + d is a window key. After hitting alt + d do a control + a and than control + c before you paste it and see if that works.

Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Snagging a URL


Unless I am doing something wrong, neither f6 nor alt-d does what I expect. Firstly, if I turn on keyboard help, neither f6 nor alt-d claim to do anything. Secondly, when in internet explorer if I go to a page, then hit alt-d or f6, it says, ""address edit". I do not see a URL at that point. If I then hit control-c it says "nothing is selected". If I go to notepad and hit control-v, nothing is copied.

Also, if I look in the keyboard manager under either default or internet explorer, neither alt-d nor f6 are defined as key strokes.

Sooo, isn't there supposed to be a keystroke that puts me into the address bar in Internet Explorer so that I can copy the URL of the page I am on? Insert a says that is what it does, but it doesn't. It only reads the URL, but I can't copy it. I can do it through properties using the applications menu, but a single keystroke or two would be quicker. Have I just forgotten how to do this the easy way?
