Re: [JAWS-Users] edit fields sometimes not working in internet explorer 8

[Dan Rossi]

I have also noticed this edit box issue.  It is not limited to google 
though.  Every now and then, sometimes it happens, sometimes it doesn't, I 
start typing into an edit box, and the characters just don't appear.  I am 
typing from the qwerty keyboard.  Often, exiting IE and starting again 
works.  Occasionally, I just hit enter on the submit button, then try 
again, and that often does work.  I haven't been able to consistently 
reproduce this behavior.  It happens on a Windows XP box running JFW 12 
and IE 8 and on a Windows 7 box running JFW 13 and IE9.
