A blind friend of mine is using JAWS to navigate through his computer and web. He goes to a website (eBay, for example), and JAWS articulates to him the text and URLs. He uses the keyboard to tab between links, and when he finds the link he wants, he hits space bar. It's amazing to see him in action. When he complained about popups, I told him to switch to Firefox. He said he tried that, but that it didn't work well with JAWS. Anyone know of any resources that could help me figure out what's going on? I haven't "seen" the problem yet -- he has no monitor. (But if I have to, I'll hook one up to see what the problem is.)

What does that Jaws do. convert all the text to audio and read it? I suppose that would be needed for the blind unless someone can find a way to do braille on a monitor. HeeHaw
