Hi Robin and others, just to note that an alternative to using the edit box on the google web page is to use the search box in internet explorer (or firefox). You first need to set google as the default search provider, and then you can just press ctrl+e to move to the search box, type in your search terms and press enter. Full details for using the search box in ie8 can be found in the search box section of this guide to ie8: http://vip.chowo.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/jaws/Internet-Explorer-8-Guide.html This guide to google might also be relevant: http://vip.chowo.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/jaws/Google-Guide.htmlÂ
Note that in ie9, the address bar and the search box have been merged, but you can still search in the same way. However to check what search providers are available, and to change the default you have to open the manange add-ons dialog, which is on the tools menu. best wishes, David. original message: I have noticed on my home and on my work computers using JAWS 12 and one PC on XP the other using Win 7 that when I go to do a google search and turns forms mode on I can type in the information or the search criteria and for some reason what I typed is not there. I can do this several times turning forms mode on and off going to top of page then jumping back to the edit field and still text seems not to be echoed or even written into the field. I cannot arrow back to see what is typed and if I turn JAWS Cursor on there is nothing to be found. Any one experiencing this and what could be the issue here?
