cool google feature accessible in snow leopard

2009-09-04 Thread John J Herzog

Hi listers,
If you go to google.com, and type in some search terms, you can now  
hit the down arrow to cycle through a list of suggested criteria for  
your search. For instance, typing in best selling books might give you  
best selling books of 2009, best selling books on Amazon, etc.
To highlight each suggestion, simply hit down arrow after you are   
done typing. To read each suggestion as it's highlighted, use VO down  
arrow. It will read you the current text in the box. To go to the next  
suggestion, simply hit the down arrow again, and then reread it with  
the VO command above.
I knew you could do this in yahoo for a while, but didn't realize  
google had a similar feature. I think it's really cool, and hope it is  
helpful for someone.

Thanks for this. It's pretty cool. Though I'm wondering if this is why
the Safari autofill feature is no longer working (at least for me) on
Google News.

humm this does not work for me.  I actually feel like this worked in  
Leopard, and probably better.

Hi
Sometimes to read the suggestions, you have to hit either VO left or  
VO right arrow. VO down arrow can take you out of the search box  
altogether. VO left and right works every time, though interestingly  
you have to try both, as neither one is consistent.
