Using Dragon's Web capabilities without RIA
If RIAextensions aren't available for your Web browser or Web application, you
can still use many of Dragon's features on the Web. For example, you can
dictate in any text field, such as commenting fields in Facebook and instant
messaging programs, move around Web pages, click links, and perform
keyword or Web site searches. In Internet Explorer, you also have Full Text
Control without RIA.
When Dragon notices that you are dictating in an unsupported application, it
opens the Dictation Box, which also features Full Text Control.
You can also use keyboard commands such as “pressAltd,” “press Enter,”
“press tab,” “press F5,” “page down,” and commands for clicking and dragging
the mouse, such as “MouseGrid 3,” “mouse right-click.”
For more information about Dragon's Web capabilities, see Working with a Web
browser.
If you have problems using Web
applicationsupport
If you're having problems using Dragon with a supported Web application, this
list can help you identify the cause and find a solution.
Is the Web application supported in your browser?
Rich Internet Application (RIA) extensions are available in the following Web
browsers and versions:
n Internet Explorer, version 9 (32-bit mode only)
n Mozilla Firefox, version 12 or later
n Google Chrome, version 16 or later
If you don't have one of these browsers in the version listed, you can still use
Dragon's existing capabilities for commands and dictation on the Web, but you
will not have the full benefit of Web application support.
