I don't know if you are seeing my messages since you haven't responded to any but you have to every other sender.
To change the behavior, do the following. Open tools, alt t, then o for options. After options opens tab once. Down arrow to applications. Tab until you get to the search field. Type pdf Then tab and there will be a result. It will tell you what your current choice is. It will say list but you'll only see that item. In the list up or down arrow to select that item. Then tab once. You are in a combo box. Up arrow to the choice you want, preview in Firefox. This dialog doesn't have an ok button. Settings take immediate effect.
Options is a web page that looks like a dialog. Since you are actually on a web page that Firefox generates internally, do whatever you wannt from here in the same way as you would leave any web page, such as going to another page with a book mark, closing the browser, etc.

In this case, how would you tell Firefox to either download the PDF or open it in another program? right clicking the link and using save link as might allow a download but there are sites where right clicking won't work so if the situation can't be corrected or another method is desired, it would be good to know how this is done.

new laptop
Hi.
As my toshiba is getting quite old I will be getting another laptop. What should I avoid, what should I go for. I have used asus boards and find them stable enough. I have used an hp my aunt has and while there are enhancements to manage its stable enough. People say stay away from dell because of its sound effects thingy and other things, and well lenovo aparently is quite good though never investigated that one. Note, anything suggested must be able to be gotten in new zealand or at least have me have a shot at getting. It will have win10 to.

I have discovered what is happening! In Firefox, every time I click on a document linked to a web page, Firefox downloads the file to the default "Downloads" folder on my PC. I now have several copies of various files that I have been trying to open! Any idea what setting is controlling this behaviour in Firefox? It is clearly not a fault in Firefox but it is not what I want Firefox to do. All the best, Cearbhall m +353 (0)833323487 Ph: _353 (0)1-2864623 e: cearbhall.omeadhra@...

Hi Cearbhall,
I can't give you an exact reproduction of this because I have Office 365 and the PDF documents open in Microsoft Word. However, if I right click and choose save as, it saves as a DDF and thencan be opened and read quite well with NVDA in the Adobe PDF Reader.

Only I'm trying to reserve a truck for my upcoming move, via http://www.uhaul.com/ However, when it comes to selecting a pickup date, the edit box is read only; you can't enter a date. I can enter a pickup and drop off, but no date. The time of day is a combo box, but again, the day is read only. Can anyone else duplicate this before I report it to the company?

Re: Windows 10: Firefox 59 Unusable with NVDA

That's encouraging news! You managed to read the lot all right. What keystrokes did you use? Like you, My windows is Version 1709 (OS Build 16299.371) So, there must be a simple explanation as to why I can't get the document links to open even though the page links on the site do open correctly. All the best, Cearbhall m +353 (0)833323487 Ph: _353 (0)1-2864623 e: cearbhall.omeadhra@...

It came up just fine. At first it had the typical PDF controls, zoom and such, and then below those it said "clickable" and it was blank, but if you wait a second or two, maybe longer depending on your connection, it comes up. I read about a photographer and some sort of American tribal belly dance troop, whatever the hell that means, and a group who did 1950s French and Italian music whose saxophone is apparently coming real soon now. This is using "Microsoft WindowsVersion 1709 (OS Build 16299.371" 64-bit, NVDA 1018.1.1, and Firefox 59.0.2 64-bit. On 4/24/2018 12:06, Cearbhall O'Meadhra wrote:

Only Rob,
I use JAWS 2018 latest build and IE and when I go into forms mode on the
pickup date field, I type but nothing happens but if I go into JAWS mode I
hear a calendar with days and if I click on say, 24 and then go back to pc
cursor and go to the pickup date field, I hear 04/24/2018.

Only From looking at the site, I understand what is
occurring. It is a read only edit field because it is supposed to display
a date you select. But however you are supposed to select the date is
inaccessible. If I am in forms mode and I'm in the edit field, if I press
enter, the edit field shows today's date. But there is no accessible way
to change it.

Handy Tech Active Star 40: gets just recognized after switching to pc mode
Simon Eigeldinger
Hi,
I have a Handy Tech Active Star 40. I am running the latest NVDA Next 15060 but that also happened on NVDA 2018.1. When the braille display is turned on and NVDA starts then the display seems not to be recognized when the start up mode is switched to main menu. it just gets recognized when the start up mode is pc mode. A few months ago that was automatically switched by NVDA. Is there an issue in the Handy Tech driver? I am running Windows 10 Home 64 Bit. I have the recent firmware 2.0c installed but that also happened when 2.0b was installed as well. Greetings and thanks, Simon --- Diese E-Mail wurde von Avast Antivirus-Software auf Viren geprüft. https://www.avast.com/antivirus

Re: For Orhan: Soulseek I Use Now On Send Space
Orhan Deniz <orhan.deniz63@...>
Open the client, ctrl+tab until you get to options, and then make sure you're on the UI tab of the options tab. check the two checkboxes use old style transfers view and use old style search results.
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
In the search tab, after the manual search subtab, there is a combo box that says down. that is in fact the edit field where you type your search query. From then on its just a case of using object nav in the various tabs, including search results. you can't use regular up+down cursor keys as it only really reports user or file name depending on the column you've got highlighted. But object nav shows everything.
