moderated how to drag and drop on websites?

Hi there! I am wondering, how one can deal with
drag and drop stuff on the web when using Jaws? For instance, with this one
thing I was trying to deal with, it asks you to drag a list of things in order
from most important to least important. I tried the lock mouse button command to
try to do it, but then the arrow keys won't read where I'm moving to. Is there
any way around this kind of thing besides getting someone to do it for
me?
Thanks

I had to drag a button, and I used my touch-screen. Thanks, Jessica

Hmmm, I don't have one of the new compputers with
touch screens built in. I wonder if I could fill it out on my iPhone, as Apple
seems to have a pretty good interface for this? In my case, I need to reorder a
list of about 16 things this way.

Hi, Yeah, try that, and let me know how that works.
Thanks,

I've never found a good use for that mouse lock and unlock hotkey in Jaws that actually does something useful. I think the real problem with trying to shoehorn this to work on the web is that the virtual cursor and mouse pointer don't follow each other, and except for Internet Explorer, the Jaws cursor won't let you access everything you need to make a good drop at the correct spot.

I need to arrange some WIFI priorities for my router using the web interface, and it requires drag and drop. I've tried locking the cursor and that did nothing. Glenn
