Hi, Brad. I use Firefox with JAWS13. I only have one AddOn which has
options. This is Navigational Sounds. Here is what I do to reach the options
for Navigational Sounds within Firefox.
1. Start Firefox.
2. Press the ALT key and Right Arrow over to Tools.
3. Down Arrow to AddOns, and press Enter.
4. Turn off the Virtual Cursor by pressing Jawskey plus the letter Z.
5. Tab once to reach a listbox containing the following menu items:
A. Get AddOns
B. Extensions
c. Appearance
d. PlugIns
e. Services
6. The AddOn for which you want to configure the options will probably be
found in either:
B. Extensions
or
e. Services
7. Arrow up or down through the various AddOns found in these lists.
8. Once you find The right AddOn in the list, Make sure the Virtual Cursor
is still off.
9. Arrow up and down a couple of times to make sure the AddOn is selected.
10. Press Enter on the appropriate AddOn.
11. You will know if the press of the Enter key takes effect or not, because
when it does, JAWS will say, "Read Only".
12. Tab several times, and you may see links to the person who created the
AddOn.
13. Finally you may see an Options Button. Use Space Bar to press this
button.
14. As you use the Tab key, there will be a list of options to configure.
15. Once you have configured the AddOn's options (usually with check boxes,
but also can be with Combo Boxes), Press CONTROL plus W to close the AddOns
Manager Window.
16. The AddOn should now be properly configured.

Subject: Mozilla Firefox Add-ons with JAWS?
Does anybody know how to actually use Add-ons in Firefox? Sure, I can
install the add-ons, and I can go to the Add-on manager to enable,
disable, or remove them. But how do you actually get to them without a
mouse and a set of functioning eyes? I've Googled and Googled, and all I
find is that I'm supposed to use something called an Add-on Bar. Wish I
could find one. I've tabbed until my tab key almost went on strike from
abuse, and I don't see anything like that. Going to the View, Toolbars,
option doesn't allow me to choose Add-on bar. I found a shortcut key,
Control /, that's supposed to turn the Add-on bar on or off, but I don't
know if mine's on or off, because I can't find it before or after I press
Control /
Any bright ideas? I installed an Add-on and it's functioning, but I'm
supposed to be able to configure its options, and well, yeah, no, not so
much.
Thanks,
Brad
