Hmm, you mean this is a JAWS search and not a search on a specific web page,
right?
If you're using the control F to activate the JAWS find, it does keep a
history of past searches if you check that specific box. you could try
selecting everything in the box, deleting it, and typing in your search or,
if your feeling adventurous, press the control F combo and then press enter
to see where the search goes, assuming there's anything for it to find.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] squares in a search box
Hello:
I will try to explain this some how and hope someone will understand.
This is all happening on the internet. I activated the virtual find by
evoking CTRL f. Now I typed in my search but my sighted cohort told me
there
were some boxes that needed to be deleted from the search field and that
is
why nothing is coming up for the search. Lets say I am searching for news,
but the person says there are some boxes before news and I need to delete
them before proceeding. What are these boxes my sighted cohort is talking
about?blank
