I guess the problem is with 40 and not with the version I have which is
40.0.3.
I really need to think about turning off automatic updating but it is
not as safe.
I do seem to have fewer crashes lately.

I seem to be having luck with ctrl+l in Fire Fox 40. I do notice that
it has autofill turned on. Sometimes Jaws has trouble reading what's
added when I start typing.
But, now it seems to be working just fine. I know. I'll forget about
this thread and the problem will come up later.
I did make those changes to the Fire Fox configuration file that were
suggested for screen reader users some time ago. Could that make a
difference?
Just wondering. Are you pressing ctrl+l the second time while you are
still in the edit box, or after the page you want loads.
Sometimes pressing tab moves out of the Search or enter address edit
combo
box to a list of suggestions. Other times it moves to the search
Bing or what ever your prefered search engine is. Somewhat
confusing. Needs a manual for screen reader users.

control-l for another address, it wouldn't work.

Subject: Firefox 40 question
Hello, everyone.
Typically, with Firefox, I use the control L command, after which I can
paste a web site address into the edit box, and hit enter. I'm then
able to
open The web site from that point.
However, I'm finding that the control L command no longer works with
Firefox 40.
Has anyone noticed this change, and are there good work-arounds?
I have gotten to the point where I actually prefer Firefox to Internet
Explorer for accessing and navigating web sites, so this apparent
change in
Firefox behavior is somewhat disconcerting.
I'm using Jaws 16 and Windows 7 here.
Thank you.
