Umm can you describe again what you are trying to do? At a glance it appears you want a text area in an HTML document and to be able to type in it. And then do you want it loaded back into JAWS? If so I'd start by writing up the HTML page, then you can just open/launch the HTML page. You could then create an IE object and navigate to the page, which would open it. An dyou could retrieve contents from the text area using DOM traversal. Or just have some JavaScript copy the contents to the clipboard, depending on where all the input should be used. Just some thoughts. Again perhaps more detail would get nmore precise ideas. -----Original Message----- From: jawsscripts-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:jawsscripts-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Desyree Vaughn Sent: Monday, March 02, 2009 9:55 AM To: jawsscripts@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [jawsscripts] using IE objects I am looking for help as to how to code an IE com object that will allow me to type in a html message body for an email client. the script has nothing in it right now just the start and end stuff. thanks Desyree __________ Visit and contribute to The JAWS Script Repository http://jawsscripts.com View the list's information and change your settings at http://www.freelists.org/list/jawsscripts __________ Visit and contribute to The JAWS Script Repository http://jawsscripts.com View the list's information and change your settings at http://www.freelists.org/list/jawsscripts
