Re: Introduction from Jonathan Cohn
Hi, I can comment on one of your questions. You are not the only one to have trouble with the find function in safari and I too at first thought that it was limited to what is visible on the current screen which is extremely limiting. Through experimenting I found that on some pages it is, such as the gmail html view and on other pages it works as it should and is not limited to what is visible on the current screen. I do not know what makes the difference or how to get around it other than the items chooser. The problem in some cases with using the items chooser is if you want the order that things appear on the page to be preserved, such as messages in a thread in gmail, and not put in to alphabetical order such as the items chooser does. I have found no way around the items chooser insisting on alphabetical order. If you don't care about the order in a situation the items chooser is brilliant. I think on screen / order in wich they appear through the page from top to bottom would be far more useful than alphabetical in many more cases than alphabetical is. My mac mini is new to me and I haven't gotten mail really setup just yet. I have checked it out some. Is there a limiting issue with trying to read messages in mail?

Well Howdy! I don't know what jump mode is. Could you expand on that? Just curious. >From what I can tell, the VO fin in Safari only looks at what is on the current screen.
