Hello Nic

OK, maybe I didn't explain myself too well; so let me try again. :) I was 
trying to read webpages with the trackpad, for better to understand how it 
worked so that I could assist my disabled employee with her situation.

I tried to read a website using the Trackpad with Trackpad commander turned on. 
But when I executed the gestures flick right to move down, left to move up, 
etc. the VO cursor would go shooting away off the page and focus would land 
somewhere else entirely. Focus would not always land within Safari either, 
sometimes in another app completely.

I discovered that, if I disable opening of multiple tabs when trying to read 
the webpage that way, it worked fine. So I will suggest to Gillian that she 
adheres to that; although I think she only has one tab open at a time anyway.

Does that clarify things a little for you?>

Hi lynne,

I'm guessing I don't quite understand what you were trying to do with the 
trackpad and VoiceOver. Opening multiple tabs, I have no trouble navigating. 
I've also been reading the thread again with no better understanding of your 
potential problem.

Would you mind elaborating? I'm sure you already have, and for that I 
apologize, but please humor me. I'd love to cut down on traffic and avoid 
asking this on list, but since this sounds like a potential VoiceOver problem 
perhaps, and if I'm not the only one not understanding what you were attempting 
to do, hopefully there's a way.
