Ken, why not just tap the control key to silence speech when the page
starts jabbering away, then issue your find command as normal. Also, you
can do an insert+enter which in most cases does a nice job of getting you
past the common set of links so often found at the top of every page. This
version of JFW is so much better with Internet access, I can't understand
why anyone would want to turn the virtual PC cursor off, except in those
cases that Kelly has been so good at finding.
