Re: [JAWS-Users] Mouse over
Flor, I tried over and over to activate the mouse over, but could not do it. I finally just got my husband to use the physical mouse and get the silly policy that way. Thanks for your email about the merge utility. I just did it and it took about 5 seconds and I noticed right away my dictionary entries were added to 14, so that is fantastic. Joni -Original Message- From: Flor Lynch Sent: Thursday, July 18, 2013 7:28 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Mouse over Do you have JAWS turned on to indicate OnMouseover links/elements? Did JAWS say, "could not detect any changes", after the 3-in-1 keystroke? Or did it say nothing, and treat it as an ordinary link? If the latter, then you may not be doing the keystroke correctly, (thus my NOTE on it: The JAWSkey [or Insert key] first; then the control and enter keys together, in the three-in-one.) If possible, find some other OnMouseOver link, which may be more amenable, on which to practise. If JAWS detects a change after the onMouseover click, it will say, "change detected at line xx" and will (I think) position you on that line or near it. - Original Message - From: "Joni Colver" To: Sent: Thursday, July 18, 2013 11:53 PM Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Mouse over Flor, I just tried that, but nothing changed. So, I will just have to assume this particular link is JAWS-proof, unfortunately, unless anyone else has some ideas. Thanks for your suggestion. Joni -Original Message- From: Flor Lynch After you've pressed the keys to find the MouseOver, which is what you did, then press control+JAWSKey+enter to activate it. JAWS will then tell you if it detected any changes. NOTE: It may be important to press the JAWSKey first, before the other two, for the key combo to work properly.

Re: [JAWS-Users] jaws and yahoo mail
Scorpio, would you please explain to me then what I would have to do to navigate and read my email using the new Yahoo mail if it is accessible as you say. I am using the mobile which works fine, but I would like to learn how to use this 100% accessible site. This may not be something for the list, if not write me at my email address below. Thanks. I am someone who wants to learn, however I still think people should be given a choice to stay with what they had or not.

The only problem is that people aren't taking the time to learn it, but from what I can tell, it is completely accessible with Jaws. Having said that though, you can use their mobile version at the following link: http://m.yahoo.com/w/ygo-mail%3B_ylt=A0KjqcaaV.dRJWsANg8p89w4?.intl=CA&.lang =en-ca Unfortunately, you're only left with a list of 10 messages you can view at a time, and you have to enter on the folders link to view the rest of your folders, such as the drafts, sent items and spam folder, if you have it activated, but otherwise, it's just as accessible as the other version you're so used to seeing. Once you're finished checking the ten showing messages, enter on the older messages link, and you'll get ten more, and so on until you see all your messages. I know, it's a pain in the butt, but there's really no one we can blame for thise, save for Yahoo themselves, but I don't even think they can be blamed, since they're giving the majority of people what they asked for. My wife has nothing but good things to say about the new Yahoo interface, but she's sighted, and so doesn't experience the same problems we do. In any case, hope the above information helps you.

Re: [JAWS-Users] jaws and yahoo mail
David and all, a coworker of mine, while talking to him about this issue, said that he has trouble dealing with the new Yahoo as well because of all the junk they have on the site. There are so many ads all over the place that he has trouble himself working it and he is sighted. I don't know why these web designers think that this is good. I do know people who use text only sites that I use myself who are sighted just so they don't have to look at all this stuff.

If she were not able to use the mouse on a minimal basis then it wouldn't work for her either. Never the less I purchased her a subscription as well to minimize the hassle. It is interesting that over the past several years web masters have been placing a never ending amount of useless junk on their pages to make them look more appealing and now people are reverting back to a more simpler time with pages that only seem to contain what is needed and very little else.
