Perhaps I should say that the sighted person who was with me (when i did this on an occasion) didn't see what the password was when I pasted it in like that. A totally blind person can have their monitor off, anyway.----- Original Message ----- From: "Eleanor Burke" <eleanorburke@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Interesting one Flor, does the password then appear in the field as black dots? rather than as text?----- Original Message -----From: "Flor Lynch" <florlync@xxxxxx>To: <vip_students@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Wednesday, April 27, 2011 10:31 PM Subject: [vip_students] Re: echoing passwordsHi jackie, time was when JAWS echoed everything in the password, so there was no protection from eavesdroppers. those days are gone. why not type your password in Notepad, perfectly with no extra spaces, select and copy it to clipboard, then paste it into the password field.----- Original Message ----- From: "Jackie McBrearty" <donegal.jackie@xxxxxxxxx>To: <vip_students@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Wednesday, April 27, 2011 2:57 PM Subject: [vip_students] echoing passwords Hey all is there a way that I can get jaws to echo passwords, getting out of practice using a full size keyboard can't seem to enter a password correctly. thanks Jackie
