Try hitting insert W, it will list all key commands with in IE or firefox. As far as I know, it may list all key command within any program. And you are correct, K states place markers.

OK, I start to wonder a bit here.


When I press the K key, it says

      "No Placemarkers",

and it does NOT take me to any new link.


Whatever is going on, I don't know, but that is what I get. Now, if I
turn on the Key-help, by pressing Insert-1, what do I hear, when hitting
the K?

      "Go to next Placemarker".

And if I hit Shift-K?

      "Go to previous Placemarker".


Wonder if I have a different keyboard layout activated, or what else
could be going on.


OK, I did update my Jaws last night, and it is something like version
18.04. Don't know if they have some changes lately in the layouts. But
apparently people are having different keystrokes acting up.


Any further ideas, please?

Hi David:

First of all, the default key combination which takes you in and out
of Browse mode is
insert-z.  Insert-f7 takes you to a list of links.  Insert-f5 takes
you to a list of form fields, and the letter k or shift-k takes you
from one link to another.

One of my first issues, is to operate the web. Boy, does Jaws take us a
decade back in the way of operating the websites! Am I right, there is
no single way to jump to the next link; that you will have to determine
if it is a visited or unvisited link you are looking for? Sure, I can
see the benefit of making this distinction - when you are visiting a
page you know you have been before. But if you are browsing the net for
something in particular, and you land by chance on a page you have been
before, now you will have to remember that you have some visited, and
some unvisited links to browse. Or, have I overlooked - even missed -
some hotkey here?


Next, seems you only can go to the next line of text, coming up after
non-text controls. Meaning you will have to first find the start of the
text block, by the navigation key of N, and then move your hand to the
arrow-keys. Now you have to arrow, til you get to a non-text control,
and then move your hand back to the main keyboard, to hit the N, so as
to get to the next block of text. Again, if I have missed some
operational feature, please will someone be kind to educate me?


Most of all, listers. Could someone please tell me the hotkey to turn
on/off the browse mode. In Window-Eyes, we have the Ctrl-Shift-A, but
what is the equivalent in Jaws?


Thanks so far. I've sure got numerous other things to ask, but they will
go into individual threads.
