In Internet Explorer, you could try turning off the virtual cursor with Insert+z, then find the link and press enter on it. Then Toggle the virtual cursor on again with insert+z to resume normal operation. ----- Original Message ----- From: "joanne" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Thursday, February 07, 2013 5:28 PM Subject: [JAWS-Users] some links won't open even when hitting shift enter >I have noticed that some links will not open at all, and this happens >on many websites of late.
