Re: When on the net.

This is typically a link that takes you to the start of content, so you press enter on it. I don't like using such links because they confuse me when I want to go back. You would expect the link to take you to another place on the same page, but if you try to go back a page with alt-left arrow, you stay on the same page. It takes a second press of alt-left arrow to go back an actual page, which is one more nagging point I don't need to keep in my head. Web designers who create such "Skip to content" links are already accessibility-savvy, so I find the h for heading or n for skip links works fine in those cases.

Example, on the AFB site, it said "skip to contents". Thanks.

Hi, Carolyn. We don't have enough information from you as to what type of
content you are trying to directly navigate to.

With that said, If you are looking for some sort of text on a webpage, you
can use Control plus the letter F when not in a form field, and it will
bring up a search box where you can enter text you're looking for.

Does anyone know what commands to use when attempting to go directly to
the content of something on the web? I have experimented with everything
that I can imagine with the help of JAWS Help. If anyone can tell me,
thanks you very much in advance.
