Hello All:
I don’t know if anyone else has noticed this but recently, Safari reader opens
with the cursor located at the bottom of the page. I haven’t updated anything
yet this change had suddenly occured. Someone on Applevis mentioned using vo
plus function and left arrow to go to the top
For reading purposes, removes much clutter leaving mostly text only on many
web pages.

Mary,
I can confirm this issue no longer happens with Lion.
I used to experience the same problems whilst reading UK online newspapers.
Am pleased to say that annoying issue is now history.
That Macworld article read flawlessly.

When it finds an article, the reader is a big time saver over moving by header
and finding the start of an article, especially when you get articles that have
a bit of text and then a bunch of junk followed by the full article. One key
combo and the reader opens and reading commences. Very
that read beautifully for me using the latest build of webkit and Lion!
However, I have experienced that on some other articles. Honestly though, I
can't remember if it was Lion or SL.

Some time back, I reported a bug to the Accessibility team at Apple, namely
that any time you are using the Safari or webkit reader and encounter text that
is a link, vo reads that text twice, once as plain text and the second time
announcing the link and reading the same text. This can lead to

Hello Mary,
In Lion Safari reader only speaks each link once, so that bug must have been
fixed.
One small annoyance that persists is that the reader appends clickable to
each section of text you read, so when you're going through an article you're
regularly hearing clickable.

Hi Scott,
Here you go. This is from MacWorld. Pretty much any of their newsletter
articles will do. Once on this page, activate the reader command shift r, and
listen for double text every time a link is encountered. First time, the text
is just read out. Second time, the linked text is read

Are you in groups or dom mode? I have seen this behavior in groups mode
however, when I switch to dom mode the links are spoken once.

Hi Mary,
I'm not hearing any double links, so trying to reproduce the issue. Is there
any specific links? I know you said it was a number of them, but I'm trying to

Hi Mary and Scott!
So a little input from me! :]

Then I had to start vo with vo+A and it did indeed start reading the article!
And as it went through it just red the links
Hi Scott,
Maybe the issue is fixed in Lion. I think Andre posted that he thought it had
been fixed. It happens in the reader for me on SL with all linked text. I

Hi Colin,
Once in the reader, you should not have to start with vo a. It should just read
out to you. That's the cool thing about the reader. It doesn't always find the
article, but if it does, it should just read straight through, no vo A or any
other intervention required.

One thing that could be happening here, sometimes links are labeled with text
and also an alt or title tag, if this is the case, voiceover will read both,
especially if you have the option to read help tags enabled. This can be a good
thing, because on some sites, such as wikipedia, the text of

Hi Paul,
Try using Safari Reader (Command-Shift-R) to read the NY Times article. (For
some reason, you're stopping at the linked word iPad. At least, I assume
your reading stopped at the link, and not because you need to register to read
the site).
HTH. Cheers,

Hi.
I do not understand that. There is some problems with safari and
braille at the moment, but I can normally read in HTML areas. Does
your display not show anything at all, sometimes it helps me to
interact with the text.
I have problems when I write in a form field, if it is a mail on gmail
Hi Annie and all,
Yes, I notice the display problem in form fields, too. With Reader, the display
seems to get locked into the tool bar, no matter which control I attempt to
interact with.

It allows you to put articles on one page and makes them easier to read. Not
sure if it only works on certain pages but the command is command shift r.
