Hi everyone,

Once in a while when using JAWS in Firefox -- and maybe other web browsers -- 
for some reason, the up arrow and  down arrow keys start acting as scroll 
buttons instead of JAWS reading keys. I press Down Arrow and instead of JAWS 
reading the next line, I see visually the Web page scrolling down in the window.

Any idea why that might be happening? I'm not sure exactly what order of events 
triggers it, and I cannot reproduce it at will.  It seemed to happen more often 
with earlier versions of JAWS, but I just saw it happen with JAWS 15 for the 
first time.

When it happens, I try a variety of things, like refreshing the page, pressing 
Numpad+Plus to force JAWS into PC Cursor mode... but I cannot seem to get JAWS 
to interpret the down/up arrow keys as reading keys instead of being a scroll 
key. If I stop JAWS and restart, it clears up.

Has anyone else experienced this? Any ideas?

Thanks,
Dan
