Hi Gerald, Here are some notes I've saved regarding this issue. See if 1 of them will help.
There is a possibility the address bar was moved or jiggled out of position. To restore it is tricky without sighted assistance, but look for the address bar items with your Jaws cursor and when you find it, hit the left mouse button twice quickly and it will bounce bac, into place. A sighted person with a mouse can just double click with a mouse anywhere in the address bar field. In an earlier message that involved IE6, he added this note: the first thing to do is go to the view menu, toolbars, and make sure you only have standard buttons and address bar checked and not any others. For example if you have Norton Anti-virus, then uncheck it. I know you don't have Norton antivirus, but it's an example of what he means. *** Make sure the Internet Explorer window is maximized and the full screen mode is off. To toggle between normal view and full screen, use F11. *** You might want to try hitting f11 and see what this does. F11 sets your browser to full screen and no menue or task bars will show. This is a toggle so hit it once to turn off and hit again to turn on Take care.

Something is really screwed up, or else I pressed some keystroke combination by mistake and now cannot view the contents of the address bar.
