Web site scripts for Facebook Messenger
Hi folks,
Hope everyone is having good holidays! Sometimes, when using Jaws 2019 latest, on Windows 10, with the latest Firefox version, and on the web version of Facebook messenger: www.messenger.com it is difficult to skip back through recent messages in a conversation. An I missing some keyboard shortcuts or are there web site scripts for this? Usually going to the bottom of the page and then hitting the Shift+5 key takes me back to the last message received, but sometimes it takes me back way too far in the list of messages, like a day or more back . Thanks, ~Ann

You might try Eclipse. I haven't used it for C++, but have used it for Java

and php. It doesn't work perfectly with JAWS, but it is usable. Scott

Re: itunes

The only difference I've noticed is there is no check for Itunes update in the Microsoft store version. I suppose it is updated through Windows update.
Both versions are awkward with all screen readers I've used; Narrator, NVDA, and Jaws 2019.
At least with Narrator; I can use the Windows feedback to send bug reports about how they work together.

Revisiting the Face Book Post/update fields in Google Chrome
Nate Kile
Hello,
I want to apologize, when I checked FB earlier, I only Tried FF, I had a bunch of different tabs open and different browsers and failed to actually try Google Chrome. I visited FB on Chrome a few minutes ago, and on my end, I did find that the edit field for posting ones update is not visible with JAWS. In NVDA, I could still navigate to it by using D, for region, arrow down one time to my name, then down arrow one more time and the what's on your mind field is there, it does not have a element tag that I could find, but when I pressed enter, my edit box appeared. When using JAWS and using R, for regions, I arrowed down to my name, then one more time and it completely skipped the, What's on your mind option. Just thought I would share my findings.

You have found the owner of this list. The short answer: no. The long answer: I have no use for religion either, however there are people here who do. I won’t tell them what to put in their signature any more than I’ll tell you to say happy holidays over any of the more traditional greetings. We can revisit that topic if ever worshipping the devil becomes a violation of list policy.

Hi, Bob. Leasey does work with the JAWS home annual license. However, as far as I know it can't be purchased from the Freedom Scientific Web site. You can visit
Leasey Central from its developer, Brian Hartgen. From there, you may download a limited time trial, order it directly from him (which was what I chose to do) or from a distributor. His page lists various

Yes, it will more than likely need to be done in the bios, HP has a page that shows the different models and the steps to change the function status. It only takes about 2 minutes, but a sighted person will typically need to do it.

CSE HTML Validator
Richard Turner
Does anyone know of scripts for the program CSE HTML Validator? I have used it for years with Window-eyes. Now that I only have Jaws and NVDA plus Narrator, I was using HTML Validator this morning and JI couldn’t quite figure out how to navigate in it with Jaws when checking a web site’s validation errors.
I have to leave in a moment, but I will do more digging on my own. I was simply hoping someone out there knew the software and knew of scripts.
Thanks, Richard
