Hi, Thanks for your response. Let me try articulating my problem more clearly: say, for example, I open Firefox and go to a news article of my liking. While I am reading that long article, I suddenly remember that there is something that I need to search for right away, so instead of exiting the webpage containing the news article, I open firefox again and open the webpage that I need to get to asap. Now while said webpage is loading, I press alt-tab to get back to my news article. My question is this: how do I ensure that the focus doesn't automatically shift to the page that's being loaded as soon as it gets loaded but continues to remain on the news article until I voluntarily choose to do an alt-tab to get to that page? Simply put, how do I prevent jaws from involuntarily jumping from one window to another -- a task which I would otherwise perform through alt-tab on my own choosing?
