Well, I have recently started having problem Windows 7, IE 11, Jaws 16 latest when I put the cursor on a link and the link above or below opens instead of the one the cursor is on, backing up with Alt arrow and trying again usually works but often does not. This is annoying since, I wanted to see the info on the link my cursor is on, not those around it in most cases.

This worked using your method. I wonder why using the right click key on the numb pad does not bring up the correct menu? I tried using the header key (H) but when I tried the application key that did not work either. It only workds when you tab to the link then hit the application key that you get the correct menu to click on open in new tab. Thanks for your help.

This is what works for me. Take care.

When I am on the Google site and I land on a link and I want to right click on that link to bring up the menu so I can open in new tab the correct menu does not open. Can someone give me some instructions on how to right click on the link. I use the forward slash on the numb pad but it does not open the correct menu. But when I use the mouse and right click on the link I get the correct menu. Any help on this would be appreciated.
