My problem these days is that many forms only have one question per page and will not let you hit next till you have filled in the required replies.

I guess you could to the bottom of the page and then do a shift f and see what the last field on it is. Brian -- bglists@... Sent via blueyonder.(Virgin media) Please address personal E-mail to:- briang1@..., putting 'Brian Gaff' in the display name field.

I'm not aware of a reliable method to move to the end of a form on a Web page. The Window-Eyes screen reader had this capability and I can see why it would be useful but I don't believe there's a way to do it with NVDA. If the capability exists in a third party addon I'm not aware of it but I certainly haven't looked through all features in all existing addons..

Ravi, Regarding ads you can do more than skip them. Why not block them with an ad blocker such as UBlock Origin.<https://nam12.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fublockorigin.com%2F&data=05%7C01%7C%7C34c0706649e847ae6fe408da5746b956%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa%7C1%7C0%7C637918258522617479%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=GPB073IeKkGc%2BsMDowFIwic%2BUDg6gsXnNcn3sjLZvcM%3D&reserved=0> Because ad blockers are not relevant to NVDA itself it would be better to talk about this type of software on the chat subgroup.

Hi, Is there a simple way to skip the advertisements in a webpage? Instead of pressing the down arrow key several times till the end of the advertisement, any simple way to reach the next required text or data? Also, a same way to skip the form fields in a page? Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks, Ravi.

That is true of some forms but a lot of sites have forms like a log
in form. My question is why forms are being asked about. I seldom
stop at such forms because ways of moving such as move by heading
from the top of a page to the beginning of an article, using the
letter h, or skipping blocks of links, using the letter n, moves me
beyond such forms on web pages. So how are you V.S. moving to get
from the tops of pages to where you want to be?

The problem is that a lot of places use this format for things like creating an account, to me this ought to be done on one page, since it makes it easier to spot any cock ups.

At other times creating an account just appears to be a big questionnaire, ie they gather as much info about you and your opinions as you are willing to give during the creation process , so the description often is blurred, and these sort of creation pages mean you have no idea what you will be asked or if you will fail at the final visual capchar option at the end as you cannot see it first. Sorry, but that is one of my trigger points grin. Brian -- bglists@...
