[JAWS-Users] nvda for google

2013-03-21 Thread Karen Schrade
Well, everything suggested hasn't worked so far. I've turned on forms mode
at the never use google instant and left mouse, spacebar, and enter don't
do a thing. Unless I'm supposed to do something different like shift
spacebar  or insert enter, it won't check. 

I turned on the html elements with insert+f8 and still couldn't check it.
GRRR!

I guess my next option is to collect and install  nvda. Thanks for the link.

Hi Karen,
the problem is that Jaws reads one of these radio buttons as not checked, even 
if it is both visibly checked and the behaviour of google search indicates it 
is checked. NVDA has the same problem.
The following works on this computer:
1. move to the first option, only when my computer is fast enough.
2. press enter to go into forms mode.
3. down arrow to never show instant results. This will now be checked even 
though jaws says it isn't.
4. press numpad plus to come out of forms mode.
5. move to the save button and press it.
 
Note that on the google home page, I can still find a link for screen readers 
to turn off instant searches at the top of the page.
 
David.

Karen,
Make your life a whole lot easier and switch from Google to Startpage.com. 
This search engine uses Google, but has a much cleaner interface and 
protects your privacy at the same time. Just give it a try. Once you start 
using it, you will not go back to Google.
