Web Page navigation

willmac@lantic.net
Hi,
I find it difficult move around in a web page and get NVDA to speak continually on any given item.
The following is the URL http://t.digitalnewspaper.co.za/nl/jsp/m.jsp?c=%40fjNSuVTurK7VzhMSOxyzIucXl%2BKsnii1IrXYxuvhTwY%3D
Witch is one of the pages I would like to navigate.
Would it be possible for some kind member to list the short-cut keys necessary to enable me to do this.
Regards, William

Hi William
it does not look as though you have many single letter navigation keys you can use even in the news letter. The letter k will take you to any links in the email. Where the links take you to another web page on the one or 2 I went to you could use the letter H to jump down by headings, k for links and g for graphics. If you are using a desktop pc the nvda key and the down arrow key will read out the page for you. If you are also new to browsing using the alt key + the left arrow key will take you back a page and the alt and right arrow key will take you forwards a page. This is only if you have been to those pages first. For other webpages you might be able to use the full list from the user manual this will change from website to website. The part in the user manual is 6.1. Single Letter Navigation Gene nz On 12-May-16 8:18 PM,

Hi Gene,
Thanks. I will work on this and see how I manage. First attempts are a bit discouraging.
Am not getting same responses as you suggest.

If things like headings and the skip blocks of
links command don't work, look through the page. See what you might want
to use the find command for. Itt's helpful and useful when pages have
useable headings but all sorts of people design internet pages. It is
important to know how to use the Internet without relying on the kindness of
strangers. The find command control NVDA key f, is one of the most
valuable and undertaught and underused commands for effective
navigation.
On a newsletter I receive, there are no
headinggs. But article links and descriptions begin immediately after the
word placeholder.
I search for place and I then start tabbing through
the article links. I tab instead of down arrow so I won't see all the
explanatary text for articles I'm not interested in. I intentionally
looked for something that was repetitive and reliavle that would be in the same
place on the page and would reliably take me to just about where articles
begin. I then used the search command when working with the daily
newsletter.
You may find something near whatever you want to
find on this or other pages. Also, on many web pages such as newspaper
pages, a good way to find a section of the paper is to do a search. Make
sure, in this case and in general, that you are at the top of the page.
Then search for something you know is there from previously looking at the page
or for something you think is a good guesss if you want to try not looking at
the page. For example, if the page has and editorials link, searching for
edito will take you to it. You may have to repeat the search by using NVDA
key f to get to the right place. Usually, typing four and sometimes the
first five letters of what you are searching for will move you the the word
reliably. There is no need to type long phrases when looking for the kinds
of things I am describing.
If you watch for patterns, you can save lots of
time on some unfamiliar pages by not having to look through them. Two
examples are:
If you are on the home page of a radio station, and
all you want to do is listen to the station, most such pages have the word
listen in the link. So, making sure you are at the top of the page,
searching and repeating the search, if necessary, will move you to the
link. Most web sites use the word contact in the link for writing to
the site. That's another example.

Also, on a page like this, the skip blocks of links
command may be useful and convenient. If you are at the top of the page.
using it twice on this page takes you to the start of the text that actually
begins the news content. If you look at the page, you will find that you
have skipped many links using this very convenient method. Simply make
sure you are at the top of the page and type the letter n twice. Then
start reading or moving down the page in whatever way you want.

I don't know what you are searching for so I
can't comment speciffically. If you know what you want to find, then of
course, the find command is very useful. If you aren't sure, it may not
be, at least looking in that way. In this case, you may have to use a
method I've described to move to the beginning of articles. Then if you
want to move from article to article. tab through the links.
You will then skip all explanatory
text.

hi Gene,

One of the things I have significantly learnt by reading yours and others postings, is the underrated 'n' command to skip blocks of links. It has proved extremely useful on pages where I want to read some text as opposed to navigation abd browsing and exploration, such as an article, description or something of that sort, and I particularly use that on pages with no good headings, sections or thinkable keystrokes to directly press. I would strongly recommend others to try and make a conscious use of this command sometimes, and you will realize its potential and the power it provides. Thanks.

Yes I was responding to the direct question about using single keys. Strangely some of the other pages on that site are fine, its as if the main page has had its headers stripped out for some weird reason. I'm not a great fan of sites that put read more all over the place as pretty soon you have tabs open all over the place to find simple things out. Why not put a digest on the page to start with.

It is a copy of a newsletter. I don't know
how many newsletters use the kind of headings that screen-readers can
detect. Nothing has been stripped out. However the newsletter is
written, it doesn't use headers. And if it did, since most items are links
to articles, headings wouldn't help much unless specific departments or articles
that repeatedly deal with the same subject from week to week are headings and
nothing else. Having links be headings would be worthless. You would
simply have another way to move through links in that case.

The web page to which the link was provided is unusual in that it is, for all intents and purposes, a page entirely of links to various articles in the newsletter. The easiest way to see what those are is to to an NDVA+F7 to get an elements list and then go through link by link to listen for the article, or articles, you may wish to read and then activate same. Virtually every article title link is also followed by a "Read more" link, which simply takes you to the same spot as the main link itself, and there are some really weird link titles that are related to advertising on the page. Once you've reached the "Front Page" link you know the list of article links is done. There are no headings or landmarks on this page. If you select a given article the easiest way to get to the article text itself once the page is loaded is to bring up the elements list again, use headings elements instead of links, and hunt for the title text of the article on that page then activate that. This lets you skip past all the navigation links and the like. Brian Never underestimate the difficulty of changing false beliefs by facts. ~ Henry Rosovsky

Saying that is the easiest is a matter of
opinion. Also, using the links list on unfamiliar pages and not using
techniques such as I described, doesn't allow you to interact directly with the
page. That doesn't allow for development of the kinds of skills I
described and may make difficult pages more difficult to work with. In my
opinion, teaching use of the links list before other direct methods of working
with web pages is a real disservice to blind Internet users.

William,
I would suggest you press the letter “k” on the main keyboard. This will move from link to link. The first ones will say Facebook and Twitter, etc. keep going until you hear a news topic that you would like to know more about. Then press the down-arrow key to see how the blog begins. If you would like to read more just press the enter key and the full article should open.
All the best,

Gene, When the format of a given specific webpage is known, and in this case it is known to be nothing more than a list of links to articles, I don't think it's a disservice to anyone who cannot see to state that fact and to tell them that for this particular page using an elements list is the way to go. I'm not trying to teach general principles here, but to help someone get through a very specific webpage, and its child pages. And, yes, that's my opinion when I have a specific case under discussion, not a "how would one best go about this in the general case of an unfamiliar page." Even then I'd encourage someone to give the elements list a look to get a quick snapshot regarding what links, headers, or landmarks might or might not be present. There's more than one way to skin a cat. Never underestimate the difficulty of changing false beliefs by facts. ~ Henry Rosovsky

I'm trying to do both because so many blind people
don't use the Internet eefficiently. In addition, it is more efficient in
this case to use the skip links command as I described and then tab or use the
letter k to move from link to link. The links list doesn't have any way to
skip the navigation links.

I would think that there is a more efficient way to
find the first link to a blog. Perhaps there is wording on the page
immediately before the first post that is reliably on the page whenever you load
it. See my previous message about the search command.

Gene, We've been round this before, and I am 100% with you on teaching the search command. The fact remains that I can actually see this web page and how strangely its laid out. The only good text marker before the article links is "Good Morning." Having to hit NVDA Key+CTRL+F and typing that in is, to me, far more work intensive than bringing up the elements list, which happens to have only 2 links on the list above the first article link. There are times when there is data available that makes a specific course of action, in my opinion, preferable to using general techniques. This is one of those times. I am not always in instructor mode and am sometimes in "get the information as quickly as possible" mode. It's clear that the general format of this webpage will remain static, and I picked what I believe to be the quickest way to access it on a daily basis. This appears to be something the original poster wants to be able to access routinely, and I responded according to the stated need. Brian Never underestimate the difficulty of changing false beliefs by facts. ~ Henry Rosovsky

Since I don't use Facebook, I can't comment on the
page and the efficiency of using the k command. I said I thought there
would be a more efficient method but I may be wrong. But aside from that,
it's worth pointing out that when searching, you don't have to type unwieldy
strings. Usually, typing four letters of a word that you are not likely to
find often on the web page is sufficient. At times, typing five lettters
is needed to avoid too many results. In this case, it's very unlikely that
either good or morning would appear on the page before that text. So
typing either good or morn should be sufficient.

Gene, This has nothing at all to do with Facebook. Another poster mentioned that if you use the 'K' key to jump from link to link on a page you're likely to hear things such as Facebook, Twitter, etc. In this particular case, even those "regulars" are not present. The link that was already pasted is: http://t.digitalnewspaper.co.za/nl/jsp/m.jsp?c=%40fjNSuVTurK7VzhMSOxyzIucXl%2BKsnii1IrXYxuvhTwY%3D Since you now know that "Good Morning" is a text landmark it's not fair to try to use that as the "let me explore this page with nothing known" technique. Try to do so and see how unlikely it is to find useful content via search unless you know the actual nature of the day's articles in this newsletter webpage. Brian

I thought the person was discussing another
site. I was wrong. I'd have to see his message again to see what
was said. There are references to Facebook and Twitter on the page and I
think he was discussing those, not saying that they are not present.
I don't know how you are looking at the
page. In NVDA, and I assume other screen-readers there are six links
before material of interest begins. It is more efficient to simply use the
skip links command twice from the top of the page then to use k or tab to move
to the first article of interest. And experimenting with the skip blocks
of links commands on different pages and comparing what it does to the headings
commands shows that the skip blocks of links command may be a more efficient way
to look for something than moving by headings on a number of pages.
If you want to move through
links once you are on the first item of interest, tab and k work well. On
some sites with other structures interspersed among links, k might be desired
and on other sites, like this one, it doesn't matter because the page is just
links and text between many of the links.

Gene, This has nothing at all to do with Facebook. Another poster mentioned that if you use the 'K' key to jump from link to link on a page you're likely to hear things such as Facebook, Twitter, etc. In this particular case, even those "regulars" are not present. The link that was already pasted is: http://t.digitalnewspaper.co.za/nl/jsp/m.jsp?c=%40fjNSuVTurK7VzhMSOxyzIucXl%2BKsnii1IrXYxuvhTwY%3D Since you now know that "Good Morning" is a text landmark it's not fair to try to use that as the "let me explore this page with nothing known" technique. Try to do so and see how unlikely it is to find useful content via search unless you know the actual nature of the day's articles in this newsletter webpage. Brian
