Re: [JAWS-Users] Changing forms mode behavior on selected web-sites

[Fernando Gregoire]

Certainly, remembering this makes no sense to users. For script developers,
however, this kind of remembers may be useful, for example, to keep track
on how INSERT+V will perform in different JAWS versions due to internal
changes this command has in these years, first in JAWS 9 for changing the
long list box of the Adjust JAWS Verbosity dialog to a more organized tree
view on Adjust JAWS Options in JAWS 9, and then for introducing Quick
Settings and their persistence level switching on the Fly since version 13.

Hi David,

It's not a matter of being right or wrong, but more of a matter of who the 
hell needs to remember that kind of crap!  LOL  That's like asking, in which 
version of Jaws did they change the keystroke for virtualizing the screen! 
LOL

Hi Mike,

I don't know what version of Jaws Flexible Web started with, but it's
definitely weird that it doesn't appear in the Jaws Manager, Insert + F2.
When you tried to open Flexible Web, did you get the following message?

You must enable the Flexible Web feature before continuing. Would you like
to enable Flexible Web?
Yes No

If you need to enable Flexible Web, it's in Settings Center default all

Use this setting to enable or disable the Flexible Web feature. You can
access Flexible Web from Internet Explorer or Firefox by pressing
INSERT+SPACEBAR, X. This check box is selected by default. This setting

Hi Mike,

Check this out:
Flexible Web
Frequently, you will encounter Web pages that contain a lot of excess
content which can make it difficult to locate the actual content you want,
or interupts the flow

when reading. For instance, many sites contain Google ad frames. These can
be troublesome for JAWS users as they disrupt the reading order of
surrounding content.

Flexible Web enables you to take more control of Web pages by allowing you
to quickly find the content you are looking for, as well as hide content
that interrupts the

reading experience. You can hide sections of content, such as Google ad
frames or other types of unnecessary content, for a smoother reading
experience. In addition,

you could have JAWS begin reading at a level one heading, or ARIA main
region, as these may contain the most interesting content.

To use Flexible Web, open a Web page you want to customize in Internet
Explorer or Firefox

Hi Mike,

Check this out:
Flexible Web
Frequently, you will encounter Web pages that contain a lot of excess
content which can make it difficult to locate the actual content you want,
or interupts the flow

when reading. For instance, many sites contain Google ad frames. These can
be troublesome for JAWS users as they disrupt the reading order of
surrounding content.

Flexible Web enables you to take more control of Web pages by allowing you
to quickly find the content you are looking for, as well as hide content
that interrupts the

reading experience. You can hide sections of content, such as Google ad
frames or other types of unnecessary content, for a smoother reading
experience. In addition,

you could have JAWS begin reading at a level one heading, or ARIA main
region, as these may contain the most interesting content.

To use Flexible Web, open a Web page you want to customize in Internet
Explorer or Firefox. Then, move the Virtual PC Cursor to the page element
you want to hide, or

from where you want to start reading when the page first loads. Activate the
Flexible Web wizard by pressing the layered keystroke INSERT+SPACEBAR, X.
Alternatively,

press INSERT+F2 to open the Run JAWS Manager dialog box, then choose
Flexible Web.

Through several easy-to-follow steps, The Flexible Web wizard that opens
provides you with two options: hide, or start reading at the selected
element. The wizard then

guides you through the process of creating a temporary customization by
giving you various choices about the selected element and how you want to
hide it or from where

exactly to start reading. Once the customization has been made, it is
immediately applied to the page. For instance, if you choose to hide all
frames containing

advertisements, you will not see any advertisements when navigating the page
after making this temporary customization.

If you are not happy with how a customization is working, you can open the
Flexible Web wizard to undo the last customization you made. When you return
to the page,

you can choose a different element or the same one, then reactivate the
Flexible Web wizard to retry the customization again perhaps with different
criteria. For

example, in the case of hiding those advertisement frames mentioned earlier,
you probably want to hide all of them, not just the first one on the page.
The wizard will

provide you with choices about whether to hide just the first one or all of
them.

You can create as many customizations for a page as you want. Once you have

Re: [JAWS-Users] Changing forms mode behavior on selected web-sites

[Fernando Gregoire]

Hi Mike,

The process of the Personalized Web Settings branch in Quick Settings that 
Adrian told is the one you must to take in order to change Forms Mode setting 
only for a specific website.
Changes made in this branch are permanent and you even cannot choose the 
persistence level as for normal options, because Quick Settings considers 
options in this branch document-specific settings which are always saved 
permanently. If you want to change an option until a focus change or JAWS 
shutdown, change the setting in the normal set of Quick Settings branches but, 
before starting to press SPACE to toggle the option, press the APPLICATIONS key 
(or SHIFT+F10 is your keyboard haven't that key, which nowadays it's rare) and 
select the persistence level you want.

Good morning all!

I have a web site where I would prefer to have forms mode set to manual, and 
not auto.  Can you do this for individual web-sites within JAWS?  For now, I'm 
changing it in the quick settings, but I was wondering if there is a better 
way.  Many thanks!

Alternatively,

press INSERT+F2 to open the Run JAWS Manager dialog box, then choose Flexible

Through several easy-to-follow steps, The Flexible Web wizard that opens

Creating Customizations and Rules
Following is an example of a situation where you might use Flexible Web to 
improve the reading experience on a Web page.

You frequently visit a news Web site where you would like to have JAWS start 
reading at the beginning of the article, which is the first level one heading 
on the page.

Between the heading and the beginning of the text is an annoying frame called 
Social containing links to various social Web sites that you do not want to 
hear or read.

You would first create two temporary customizations that start reading at the 
first level 1 heading and hide all frames named Social. You would then save 
these as a

Hi Mike,

Check this out:
Flexible Web
Frequently, you will encounter Web pages that contain a lot of excess
content which can make it difficult to locate the actual content you want,
or interupts the flow

when reading. For instance, many sites contain Google ad frames. These can
be troublesome for JAWS users as they disrupt the reading order of
surrounding content.

Flexible Web enables you to take more control of Web pages by allowing you
to quickly find the content you are looking for, as well as hide content
that interrupts the

reading experience. You can hide sections of content, such as Google ad
frames or other types of unnecessary content, for a smoother reading
experience. In addition,

you could have JAWS begin reading at a level one heading, or ARIA main
region, as these may contain the most interesting content.

To use Flexible Web, open a Web page you want to customize in Internet
Explorer or Firefox. Then, move the Virtual PC Cursor to the page element
you want to hide, or

from where you want to start reading when the page first loads. Activate the
Flexible Web wizard by pressing the layered keystroke INSERT+SPACEBAR, X. 
Alternatively,

press INSERT+F2 to open the Run JAWS Manager dialog box, then choose
Flexible Web.

Through several easy-to-follow steps, The Flexible Web wizard that opens
provides you with two options: hide, or start reading at the selected
element. The wizard then

guides you through the process of creating a temporary customization by
giving you various choices about the selected element and how you want to
hide it or from where

exactly to start reading. Once the customization has been made, it is
immediately applied to the page. For instance, if you choose to hide all
frames containing

advertisements, you will not see any advertisements when navigating the page
after making this temporary customization.

If you are not happy with how a customization is working, you can open the
Flexible Web wizard to undo the last customization you made. When you return
to the page,

you can choose a different element or the same one, then reactivate the
Flexible Web wizard to retry the customization again perhaps with different
criteria. For

example, in the case of hiding those advertisement frames mentioned earlier,
you probably want to hide all of them, not just the first one on the page. 
The wizard will

provide you with choices about whether to hide just the first one or all of
them.

You can create as many customizations for a page as you want. Once you have
created one or more customizations, you can save them as a rule, which is
applied every

time you load the particular page or site. To indicate that a rule has been
applied to a page, JAWS plays a sound after the page loads. Rules can be
applied to the

current Web page, entire Web site, or globally for all Web sites. Otherwise,
customizations are only temporary and are lost as soon as you navigate away
from the

current Web page or close the browser. If you have made temporary
customizations and you attempt to navigate to another page or close the
browser, a dialog box opens

asking if you want to save your customizations as a rule.

Creating Customizations and Rules
Following is an example of a situation where you might use Flexible Web to
improve the reading experience on a Web page.

You frequently visit a news Web site where you would like to have JAWS start
reading at the beginning of the article, which is the first level one
heading on the page.

Between the heading and the beginning of the text is an annoying frame
called Social containing links to various social Web sites that you do not
want to hear or read.

You would first create two temporary customizations that start reading at
the first level 1 heading and hide all frames named Social. You would then
save these as a

rule which will be applied each time you load a page from this Web site.

Creating Temporary Customizations
To customize this site so JAWS starts reading at the first level one heading
and ignores the Social frame, do the following:

Move the Virtual PC Cursor to the first level one heading which contains the
title of the article and press INSERT+SPACEBAR, X to open the Flexible Web
wizard. By

default, the Create new customization radio button is selected.
Choose Next and you are prompted with the type of customization you want to
create. Select Start reading at an element, then choose Next.
You are now asked what element you want

Mike,

I haven't used this option, but I just went through the process to confirm that 
it works. 

JAWS key+v for JAWS quick settings
Type "Personalize" in the edit field that comes up right away.
Arrow down to the sole search result, "Personalize Web settings" and press 
enter.
On my system, I'm told ten items appear.
Arrow down to the forms mode options, press spacebar repeatedly to cycle 
through the options until you find "manual." Tab to Okay and press spacebar.

I can't be sure that this keeps your chosen setting permanently or just for the 
current view, but I'm guessing it's permanent. I'm sure there's a complete 
explanation somewhere in help.

Good morning all!

I have a web site where I would prefer to have forms mode set to manual, and 
not auto.  Can you do this for individual web-sites within JAWS?  For now, I'm 
changing it in the quick settings, but I was wondering if there is a better 
way.  Many thanks!
