Hey everyone.

I chose to defer the update for as long as possible, but this evening when I 
loaded up Firefox, it snapped up and installed the 57 update right away. 
Whenever I load it with JAWS running, now, I get the message "in-tab browsing 
is disabled due to incompatibility with your accessibility software. Please 
update your screen-reader or switch to Firefox ESR version". I was sort of 
expecting something like this, but I also noted that many people on the NVDA 
list were using Firefox 57 successfully with that screen-reader. Although I was 
unsuccessful in reading a single webpage with JAWS, I too note that FF 57 seems 
to work basically fine with NVDA, though it is definitely a bit slower. Now, 
I'm running JAWS 18, and am not upgrading to JAWS 2018 anytime soon as it seems 
my license is only good for JAWS 18. I'm getting used to NVDA anyway and if 
things continue as they are, I may very well just end up using that product for 
most things. But I did wonder if anyone was successfully using Firefox 57 with 
JAWS 2018?
