10.1.7 Read Page
On the web page, there are links, controls, and other various elements, as well as text. To read web pages properly, the "Web Browser" should classify each element, and notify the user with its information.
When reading a web page by moving with "Space-4" or "Space-1", one element is displayed on one line. The links and controls are displayed with their respective symbols so the user can distinguish each element.

10.1.7.1 Moving Among Controls
A control is a link, an edit box, a radio button, or a combo box. These same controls are found in Windows on a personal computer. Web pages also use various kinds of controls for user input. Each control has different purposes. Therefore, the user has to know exactly what type of control is being used. For example, in an edit box, the user enters a text string. In a combo box and list box, the user should select one of the items listed in the combo box or list box. The U2 "Web Browser" uses symbols to identify what type of control is used. To move from one control to another without reading the text between controls, the U2 provides the following movement commands:
Move to the previous control: "Shift-tab (Space-1-2)". 
Move to the next control: "Tab (Space-4-5)"
When you find controls in web pages, the U2 displays control symbols ahead of the contents of the control. The following is a list of control symbols.
Control name

To select or unselect a checkbox or radio button, press "Space".

10.1.7.2 Moving to a Form Field
A "form" is a page that has all of the controls, except the "link" control. The edit boxes, buttons, and combo boxes are included in a "form". When you navigate some web pages, if there are many links, it is very cumbersome to navigate to a form because you have to push too many "tab" or "shift-tab" keys to get to the form fields. In this case, you can use the "move to form field" function.
Move to the previous form field: Space-1-2-3-4-6
Move to the next form field: Space-1-3-4-5-6

10.1.7.3 Table
At the beginning position of the table, the U2 shows the table number, and the number of rows and columns on the table.
For example, there are two large tables (we call these "upper level tables") on one web page. Each table has 3 sub tables (we call these "lower level tables") with 3 rows and 2 columns on each. In this case, when the U2 shows the first sub table on the second large table, it displays "table 2-1 3 rows, 2 columns". At the end of the sub table, the U2 displays "table 2-1".
If the table consists of only 1 row and 1 column, or empty space that has only border or background, such tables are not considered tables in the U2.
The U2 provides a way to move table by table, and cell by cell, in order for the user to comprehend the structure of the table. To move cell by cell, the cell position and contents of the cell are displayed. However, the position information is only announced with speech.
For example, if you have move to a cell that is positioned on the second row and third column, and the content of the cell is "news", the U2 announces, "row 2 cell 3 news". In this case, "row 2 cell 3" is announced with speech only, while "news" is displayed in Braille.
If a table is included in the cell, the U2 announces "table cell". If there is not a table in the cell, you hear "empty cell".
In the "table cell", To move to any cell within the lower level table, press "Space-4" to move to the beginning line of the lower level table. 
Moving by cell is only valid in the table. If this command is executed outside of the table, a warning sound is played.
1. Move to the previous table: Space-3-4-5-6
2. Move to the next table: Space-1-4-5-6
3. Move to the previous cell: Space-2-3
4. Move to next cell: Space-5-6

The supported streaming file formats are "m3u", "pls", "asf", "asx".

When you play the streaming audio file in the "Web Browser", the "Add To Favorites" dialog appears.

In the edit box, you can edit or type a new title for the favorite. The extension name (.URL) is attached automatically to the title name. 
The favorites list is saved in the "/flashdisk/favorites" folder. This folder is the default folder. Though you can create sub-folders in the "Favorites" folder, you cannot change the default folder to another folder at a higher level. To save your favorite to a different folder, navigate folders and files from the "Favorites" list using normal navigation keys.

10.2.5.3 Favorites List 
The user can copy, delete, or rename the title of the sites in the favorites list, in addition to visiting any web page in the list.
To open the "Favorites" list, select "Favorites List" from the "Favorites" menu, or press "Enter-L" while in a web page. The U2 displays the Favorites list dialog which contains: the favorites list, an edit box for the title, a type combo box, a confirm button, and a cancel button.

10.2.6 Page Navigation 
On the web page, there are links, controls, and other various elements, as well as text. To read web pages properly, the "Web Browser" should classify each element, and notify the user with its information. 
When reading a web page by moving with "Space-4" or "Space-1", one element is displayed on one line. The links and controls are displayed with their respective symbols so the user can distinguish each element. 

10.2.6.1 Moving Among Controls 
A control is a link, an edit box, a radio button, or a combo box. These same controls are found in Windows on a personal computer. Web pages also use various kinds of controls for user input. Each control has different purposes. Therefore, the user has to know exactly what type of control is being used. For example, in an edit box, the user enters a text string. In a combo box and list box, the user should select one of the items listed in the combo box or list box. The "Quick Browser" uses symbols to identify what type of control is used. To move from one control to another without reading the text between controls, the U2 provides the following movement commands: 
1. Move to the previous control: "Shift-tab (Space-1-2)". 
2. Move to the next control: "Tab (Space-4-5)" 
When you find controls in web pages, the U2 displays control symbols ahead of the contents of the control. The following is a list of control symbols. 
Control name 
Symbol

To select or unselect a checkbox or radio button, press "Space".

10.2.6.2 Moving to a Form Field 
A "form" is a page that has all of the controls, except the "link" control. The edit boxes, buttons, and combo boxes are included in a "form". When you navigate some web pages, if there are many links, it is very cumbersome to navigate to a form because you have to push too many "tab" or "shift-tab" keys to get to the form fields. In this case, you can use the "move to form field" function. 
1. Move to the previous form field: Space-1-2-3-4-6 
2. Move to the next form field: Space-1-3-4-5-6 

10.2.8 What the "Quick Browser" Does Not Support 
1. Images are not supported. 
2. Any executable files on websites cannot be executed. This is because the operating system on the U2 is different from the operating system on a personal computer. 
3. A web page using flash can be opened, but the flash content may not be read. 
4. Java script is not supported. Some web pages that use JavaScript cannot be opened. Others will allow you to open them, but many controls will not be accessible.

Use the "Category" combo box, "Search term" edit box, and "Search" button to launch a new search as described in the previous section.

10.4 RSS Reader.
Really Simple Syndication (RSS" is a method for providing updates to web based content through what are called "feeds". The Braille Sense "RSS Reader" allows you to subscribe to RSS feeds and receive updates whenever the website for the feed you're subscribed to updates its content. RSS updates may include news articles, blog posts, podcasts, or just updated content for a website such as promotions or announcements. The U2's RSS Reader is preloaded with 9 Google news feeds to get you started. 
To launch the "Rss Reader", from the "Web Tools" menu, navigate to the "RSS Reader" and press "Enter" or just type R. You can also launch the "RSS Reader" from anywhere on the unit by pressing "F1-N". 
You can access the RSS Reader's functions using hot keys, or via its menus. To access these menus, press "Space-M" or "F2".  Select a menu item using "Space-1" or "Space-4" , and press "Enter".

Use "Space-4-5" and "Space-1-2" or "F3" and "Space-F3" to tab among controls in a dialog. For the purrposes of these instructions, we will generally refer to using "F3" and "Space-F3" or simply "Tab". However, in these instances, "Space-4-5" and "Space-1-2" can also be used. Press "Enter" to execute an item.

10.4.1 RSS Main Window 
When the "RSS Reader" is opened, you are placed in the main window of the application on the "Category" list. The main window is a dialog which contains:  "Category" list, "Feeds" list, "Items" list, "Item Description" static box, "Read Whole Description" button, and, if the item is a podcast, a "Download" button.  
As you Tab forward in this window, you move forward a level in the content structure, and as you ShiftTab, you move back a level in the content structure. This means that, as you Tab, the content becomes more specific, and as you Shift-Tab, the content becomes more general. 
To illustrate this, do the following: 
1. Use "Space-4" to navigate to "Google RSS" in the "category" list. 
2. Tab once. You are placed on the first feed in the "Google RSS" category, "Top Stories". 
3. Tab again: you are placed on the first item in the "Top Stories" feed.
