Deleting recipes from your allrecipes.com recipe box
There is a wonderful website called Allrecipes.com which
allows you to look up recipes for almost anything. If you find a recipe you
like, you can store it in your recipe box. The only problem with the site
is that deleting recipes from your box is not a straightforward process. I
do wish the company would make a more accessible way to do this, but until
they do, here's a method that appears to work.
Note: I'm certain there are equivalent methods to do the below steps in NVDA
and Window Eyes, but since I don't own them, I can't speak to them.
1. Pull up your recipe box.
2. Hit tab until you find the title of a recipe you want to delete.
3. Route jaws to pc.
4. Activate the pc cursor so you are now back in 'virtual mode.
Routing jaws to pc causes your mouse to "hover" over the title. This is what
is needed to bring up the "options" link for a specific recipe.
5. Arrow down until you find the "options" link and click it.
6. Click on the "delete link"
7. Go to the top of the page, then Use the "level 1 header" navigation
feature to find a header that says "delete recipe"
8. The text below this verifies the name of the recipe you are about
to delete, and asks if this is what you want to do. You can click "delete"
which is a link, or "cancel" which is a 'mouseover'
Hope this helps someone.
