We explain how a version of Floer homology can be used as an invariant of
symplectic manifolds with $b_1>0$. As a concrete example, we look at
four-manifolds produced from braids by a surgery construction. The outcome
shows that the invariant is nontrivial; however, it is an open question whether
it is stronger than the known ones.
