If you are not in Forms mode, the Backspace key acts just like the Alt +
LeftArrow combination to go back to the last page visited. I find this very
annoying and a bad key for this function. If the page updates and pops you
out of Forms Mode while you are editing a field, it will jump you back to
the previous page and lose all of your data. Since I am missing several
fingers and am a bad typist, this happens to me all of the time. I think it
is a Microsoft keystroke rather than JAWS. I guess they figured it was
consistent with Backspace moving up one level in Windows Explorer.

There is just so much stuff in the world that, to me, is devoid of any real
substance, value, and content that I just try to make sure that I am working
on things that matter.

Subject: Re: [Blind-Computing] I am getting the weirdest message
If it's from a page where you just entered information, i.e. made a
post etc. it's sending you back to the send page. i've never been able
to find a way around this except either going to my homepage or going
to history to the page before the one where I sent the data.
Actually, going to the page where you sent it might work as well,
since you're bypassing the backspace key. Anyway, it's normal and not
an issue with the site or the machine.

Guys, I'm getting the most strangest message.
I wonder if it's firefox or facebook or my stupid machine.
when I hit the backspace key to return from a say, previous link I'm
getting confirm firefox must send this to perform future actions such
as I can't remember what else. I get send and cancel button. What gives
