I don't want to change the settings of screen reader. I would like to understand why JAWS pronounces blank when the user uses arrows (down, up) to navigate in the web page. The strange is that the screen reader says blank before headings but not always. For example, before "Volume 1" heading there is no blank. Can anyone explain when JAWS says blank?
I tested the example code with Firefox 31.0 and JAWS 15.0.
