Dean,

you really mean key combo z semicolon and z colon? I just want to be sure 
I've got you right.

I'm curious to see what sorts of page areas or elements these landmarks tend 
to mark. It's not very clear to me, yet, what their purpose may be.for 
instance, are they meant to complement or replace headings? Or?the

It's up to the author of the web page to use landmarks or not.  If they are
used on the page, use z semicolon and colon with JAWS to navigate among
them.  Bookshare uses them.

Well, I'd like to imagine something like that, too. But this doesn't
actually answer my question. Must I resubscribe to the JFW list, or take
time reading through the Jaws 11 documentation?

Sigh...

I'd like to imagine that landmarks are spots on a webpage one can go to; I'd
also like to suppose that these landmarks are like MacOS 's web autospots.

I'm running the latest build of Jaws 11. When loadeing a Web page, Jaws used
to say only how many links there were on the page and announce if there was
an RSS feed. At least I think that's all it said before the page was ready
to be navigated.

Now to that list of announcements, its says how many landmarks there are.
What's a landmark? What am I expected to do with them if I wish to do
something, and how?

thanks,
Joel
