Working with Firefox

The Dragon Web Extension for Firefox lets you navigate websites and use some Web applications, such as Gmail.

You can also add a new tab or window, access bookmarks, or any other task available through Firefox's menus. See Menu Walking for more.

Opening a Web page

  1. With the cursor in the address bar, dictate the Web address.

    • Say No space on to prevent Dragon from inserting spaces in longer addresses.
    • Use Spelling mode to enter complex URLs.

  2. Say Click Enter.

    The Web page opens.

Entering text

In general, if you can select a text field, you can dictate into that field. However, you may not have full text control on all websites, so you should avoid mixing dictation and typing. Sites that allow full text control include:

  • Facebook
  • Twitter
  • Gmail
  • Google Calendar
  • Outlook.com
  • Yahoo
  • CNN
  • YouTube
  • EBay

See Dictating and typing for information on how to avoid errors caused by mixing dictation and typing.
