This difficulty with Javascript not reading as normal has existed for many 
versions of JAWS, if not also for other screen readers.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] JAWS 8 and Virtual Cursor: May Have Found Trigger 
forBug!


Hi all,
During the past few days, I have observed more closely at the virtual cursor 
issue. It appears that pages that are javascript-based seems to trigger the 
virtual cursor "bug". Why? Well, I turned off Javascript in Firefox's 
options, and JAWS seems to read web pages fine, however as soon as I turn it 
back on again the problem occurs. Just wondering if anyone else has noticed 
this too? It seems that JAWS cannot handle javascript pages as well as it 
can handle non-javascript pages. Looking forward to receive any comments. 
Thanks!
