Although some WebPages may not read well, earlier versions of Jaws will in
fact work with IE 8.
Since I am not at the computer in question, I can't look for other possible
causes,
but I suspect that the,Open Parent Document Button, is a graphic
and if focus could be brought to it with a mouse, it could be renamed.
I don't remember if IE 8 was available without having service pack 3
installed, but if it were, and installed ahead of SP3, then
a roll-back to IE7 will not be possible.
I would try a different version of Jaws, before trying to roll-back to IE8.
Additionally, I would try using a system restore point to try and pinpoint
the time when the problem occurred.
HTH,

Hello there;
well, the answer to your problem is?
your version of jaws, doesn't work with IE8.
you will need to go back to IE7,
you can do this through the add slash remove, in the control panel.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] Q: Weird problem with JAWS 7 and IE
Hello everyone,
Here's a strange one for you.
I am using Windows XP, JAWS 7.1 and IE 8. When I try to use IE, JAWS
reads (quote):
"Open Parent Document Button." No links are visible, nothing is
accessible using the PC cursor. The JAWS cursor will read the page, as
will the JAWS key + B combination. Routing JAWS to PC cursor does
nothing to solve this, nor does routing the PC cursor to JAWS. Any
ideas? Before you ask, aside from Microsoft Security Essentials, no new
software has been installed, and the problem just started, months after I
installed the security suite. Furthermore, doing a System Restore does
no good.
Thanks all.
Paul
