I have not had the need to use it in a while, but I'm sure before one could use the header button to get to the main info and zip past all the search annd departments etc, but now it seems there is no convenient header to go to, one ends up tabbing or a mixture of l k and h to get to where you want, occasionally getting stuck in a weird edit field you need to tab out of.
They have obviously changed someething as my muscle memory way does not work any more. Anyone? Brian bglists@blueyonder.co.uk Sent via blueyonder. Please address personal email to:- briang1@blueyonder.co.uk, putting 'Brian Gaff' in the display name field.

On the home page or a product page. Please
send a link if you are using a specific page so we know we are looking at the
same page. What about the find command? there may be something you
can search for immediately before the main information that is displayed on all
such pages. What about s for separator? Amazon product pages have
separators between sections.

Folks,
The easiest way to use the Amazon site is to use the Amazon access site https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/ref=mw_access
There is a search field about two lines down from the top of the page. It searches all of the amazon site. If you hit an item that says it is not available for purchase on the amazon access site, just open the link in another tab and proceed.
I have heard one report that the purchase buttons could not be activated in Internet Explorer 11, but they can be activated in Firefox.

I have tried that but every time I do anything I end up back on the main site again.

It almost works, its just that they seem to be a bit hit and miss with headers, landmarks and such. Not enough quality control obviously. Brian bglists@blueyonder.co.uk Sent via blueyonder. Please address personal email to:- briang1@blueyonder.co.uk, putting 'Brian Gaff' in the display name field.

I was just pointing out that the way I used it has now had to change. This is the one thing that irks me about sites. They cannot leave them alone, and whereas sighted users see the new layout, trying to guess this when you are a blind user is not that easy. I'll have a go later with s, but most other sites use landmarks and headings which generally seem to be fr easier to use.

Do folks in the UK order from the same web site as do folks in the USA?
