Hi All,
JAWS 8.0.2173, which I downloaded from the FS site, works much better
for me with Advanced Find (Control-Shift-F) in OE6 and is better behaved
with combo boxes in IE 7 than JAWS 7.1 did and I'd very much like to be able
to use it instead of 7.1. However, 8.0.2173 doesn't seem to be focusing in
OE and IE when I hit Control to stop speech the way it would with 7.1. In
7.1, focus would be placed almost exactly where I stopped speech, but in
8.0.2173 focus is at least at the bottom of the page in IE 7 and way below
where I stop speech in OE. For example, at
http://www.stopyourekillingme.com/index.html
when the page loads, if I hit Control when JAWS speaks the first "G" link, I
land on the copyright notice instead of the "G" link. If I
am reading a post from this list, for example, I land after the "Visit the
JAWS Users List home page at:" part.
My verbosity options are set for advanced and it's with XP Home with SP
2. I looked at the technical support notices on The FS site and old posts
I'd saved about JFW 8 and I didn't see anything. Does anyone have any ideas
on how to fix this focus problem in 8.0.2173? I thought a repair of JAWS
might help, but it's still doing the same thing as before.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Margaret
