> Hello, I am new with accessibility. I am testing some HTML pages and noticed that when I ask Jaws to show me the list of links on the page, it does so expect it does not show the buttons (which are also links). What is the cause of this?

There is a separate keystroke to show all buttons -- control+JAWSKey+B.
