Adrian, the funny thing is, if I run FF in safe mode, the JAWSCursor can 
read text on the screen. also, when I was still using Windows XP and 
experiencing this problem, my nephew said there was something on the screen 
that he clicked to get rid of. what it was, I don't know. maybe FS has a 
suggestion.

Mario,

I rarely use the JAWS cursor with Firefox. I just tried, and I find it 
doesn't work on my system, either. The result is different, however. Instead 
of JAWS verbalizing the cursor keys, I can get it to speak only one line of 
any screen. Firefox remains completely navigable with the PC cursor.

I recall reading somewhere, probably on this list, a technical explanation 
for this development with the Internet and browsers. I didn't keep the item 
and I lack the technological sophistication to understand it. However, it 
does seem that the JAWS cursor has limits.

I'm using FF 28, Win7 and JAWS 15.0.7023 (not the most current release).

hi Listers, I recently reinstall Firefox, which I used the Ninite installer.
but now I'm unable to use the JAWSCursor to review the screen. after routing
JAWS to PC, JAWS just repeats "blank" with whatever I press, cursor keys,
page down/up, tab/shift+tab, etc. I'm not sure if there's a setting to
enable/disable. Uninstalling/reinstalling doesn't help, the problem remains.
I'm using JAWS 14 on Windows 7.
