Hi Sarah,

I'm aware of that keystroke. My issues are with reading search result descriptions, not titles.

Thanks.

Why don't you just use your next and previous heading keystrokes. I can 
navigate the Google search results fairly quickly. Look that up in the vo 
manual.
There are also next and same heading and element keystrokes.

Tc.

Hi Travis,

I'm aware of highlighting and the page markup being in different bits.

However, I have to reiterate here: I'm not trying to find what problems 
Voiceover has, I'm just trying to see if they are possible to circumvent. That 
is, I'm trying to see how I can get an experience like that of Windows/Linux 
screen readers so that it would fall into my comfort zone.

David kindly mentioned that every screen reader has its own quirks and 
advantages, and that I shouldn't expect Voiceover to deliver the same 
experience, Google highlighting the results or not. From that message, I 
extracted the following answer to my question:

"For _any_ reason, to read Google search results, you have to move to the next 
object several times. There is no way to lower the number of keystrokes (I.E. switching 
to read by line and then headings and back takes as many, or even more, keystrokes than 
going through the website address and the highlighted words in the website 
description)."

Hope that recap helps someone else in the future :)

One thing to keep in mind about search results from google is that google has 
the habbit of highlighting any search terms in the search results.  This has 
the unfortunate result of sometimes putting breaks where they really shouldn't 
be, and vo acts accordingly.  It is a bit irritating, but you get used to it.
It's not a problem with voiceover, it's how the results are displayed, vo has 
no control over that.
