Re: prevent pages from refreshing

Pete <emac00@...>
 

 
  I went to
http://www.rick.com/
  and the page is not refreshing for me. 
  is there a particular place on the page wear it is refreshing? 
  I am not getting the refreshing thing. 
  I only spent five minutes or so reading parts of the page using h to navigate by headings then insert + down arrow to read down.

That's the option. But it is pretty cumbersome to activate and deactivate
this option anytime you came across such a site.
In Cobra you simply press letter s to freeze the site, and simply press
letter s again to set it free again.
And of course it is no solution to keep the metarefresh option deactivated,
because if so some sites don't work properly; i. e. you can't log in some
site, can't select list items in a list etc.

So a simple feature like in Cobra would be pretty helpful when you came
across such a site.

I did ask if ssl was supported though this was when it was new, they

They all support it now thank god but older clients that don't get

Re: Performance degradation in current Firefox

Mr. Wong Chi Wai <cwwong.pro@...>
 

I see no problem with NVDA. I recommend you go onto google and search for about:config that can help improve firefox performace and that pretty helps.

Hi, I would like to know if anyone have used XAMPP and Wamp Server with NVDA. Do anyone do if one of them are accessible? Thanks.

Microsoft isn't necessarily retrofitting it.  When Edge was released, it wasn't complete and at least one review and I would imagine more, state that it is not finished yet and that it will be a good browser when it is but that it still has rough spots currently.

Quick update: It gets stranger still.
After updating to the Canary version of Chrome, I get the message "unknown" repeatedly, easily five or more times, every time I navigate using a link or url. Also, using the arrow keys in focus mode on inbox.google.com announces the element I am leaving, not the one I am navigating to. Observed on two systems. Back to IE it is, at least until MS lets us use Edge. Why in the case of Edge they regard accessibility as something to retrofit into a product once everything else is dealt with is anyone's guess. It's more expensive this way.

Some issues with Windows 8.1

Supanut Leepaisomboon
 

Hey everyone,

While using NVDA on my Surface 3 running Windows 8.1, I noticed the following issues.

1. From time to time NVDA won't announce the item selected in File Explorer.

2. From time-to-time NVDA won't read items on the start screen (I actually posted about this back on freelists).

3. In the Command Prompt, NVDA reads all commands character-by-character, which is very annoying.

Is there fixes for the above issues? For the start screen issue I can use Classic Shell, but when I try typing a folder to open, E.G Downloads, it is usually not placed on the top of the search result, unlike with Windows 7's start menu where folders like 'Downloads' are placed on the top of the search result.

By forms mode, remember, that is JAWS termanology.  I think NVDA calls it browse mode, so don't get confused.  Same thing though.

This should help a lot. If I'm correct, you need to be in forms mode for these commands to work.

If you use it with Chrome and NVDA, it's actually quite easy. I've done it several times, and haven't had any issue. In fact, if you google the phrase

Google hangout shortcut keys

There is a whole list of commands you can use while in your browser using Hangouts. Another way to get there is to disable browse mode within NVDA, then press shift slash, which will basically therefore be the questionh mark key. Then, hit ctrl+end to scroll to the bottom of the screen, and go up from there. You should see a little window that popped up with all the keystrokes. I think they call this a mobile window in html5.

Note, that little trick works on most Google based sites like docs, sheets, Drive, gmail, etc.
