Dennis, I downloaded google Chrome and tested www.amc.com which you mention. As you say, there's no link or edit field related to "sign in," and the JAWS cursor verbalizes only a graphic.
No question, Chrome works very fast and brings up a clean interface, but it isn't fully accessible, as previously claimed. IE11 will remain my default browser until someone demonstrates how to overcome these drawbacks or Google fixes them. I do recall that someone on this list explained why the JAWS cursor doesn't work well with Firefox, and I also recall there's a complicated fix, so the JAWS cursor problem may be a function of changing technology with which FS needs to catch up. I had difficulty finding the right download link for my Windows 7, 64-bit machine. For anyone interested, here's the right link: http://www.downloadx64.com/google-chrome-64-bit/ Now that I've installed Chrome, every time I open it, it tells me it isn't my default, but it moves on too fast for me even to locate a checkbox or other field in the event I one day do want it to be my default. -----Original Message----- From: Jfw [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of dennis via Jfw Sent: Thursday, November 05, 2015 11:29 AM To: The Jaws for Windows support list.
