Link role announced before link text when cursored to, after via tab.

Note: the following from the JAWS help documentation does not appear to work and is not required: "By Default, JAWS speaks the on screen text of a link, but you can set JAWS to instead speak Title text, assigned by the page author within the HTML code. Title text normally provides supplemental information about the link".
By default, JAWS announces the link type, but you can disable this, so JAWS announces same page links, send mail links, and FTP links as "link," or "Visited Link."

JAWS announces the type of link as follows:

Link: This indicates a link that has not been visited.
Visited Link: This indicates a link that has been visited. This is determined by your browser history, not by which links have been selected on the current Web page.
Same Page Link: This indicates a link that moves you to another location on the same page.
Send Mail Link: This indicates a link that opens a new e-mail message using your default e-mail program.
FTP Link: This indicates a link that points to a FTP (File Transfer Protocol) server.
