Commonly, after you open the combo box with alt+DownArrow, you only need to arrow through the combo box (or use the first letter of the item you want to select).

Hello Suey,

What I have tried in the past is activating the combo box with an alt down arrow. Then I activated the jaws cursor, routed the jaws cursor to pc cursor. Then went down the list with jaws until I found the item I wanted then routed the pc to jaws. If you know the first letter of the item in the box and there are not others with the same first letter you can enter the box and press the first letter. I hope this helps! I know this is a pain.

Sincerely, Ryan West

Subject: [JAWS-Users] combo boxes

Can anybody help me with a combo box problem? When I enter a combo box on a website, as soon as I press up or down arrow it selects the item directly above or below and refreshes the web page accordingly rather than letting me read all of the items in the box and choose the one that I want. Is there a way to solve this?
