Re: [JAWS-Users] Best browser to use with Jaws
Firefox ESR works but the other called quantum is a waste of time. I'm pondering posting on the server the version that works if I can do it legally. -Original Message- From: Fernando Gregoire Sent: Saturday, December 2, 2017 9:58 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Best browser to use with Jaws Theoretically, the three major browsers (IE, Firefox and Chrome) are fully compatible with JAWS, and now JAWS 2018 and 18 with latest updates are starting to provide Edje support. That last support is currently very unstable. Personally, despite the Firefox Quantum disaster that I hope Mozilla will fix soon, I find that the browser which offers, in conjunction, the best navigation experience with JAWS is Firefox.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Best browser to use with Jaws
Yes. I know this is a subjective issue, but one reason I have always preferred PCs over Macs is that you always have a choice. And there's no reason why you should use only one browser. I have all four on this computer, and although I haven't bothered with Edge at all, I might someday. My girlfriend uses Chrome most of the time. I use Firefox. If I get absolutely stuck I might pull out iE for a spin, although it hardly works right on some sites nowadays. Re: the "Firefox quantum disaster" -- it actually works pretty damn well with nVDA. Not sure why JAWS is having so many issues with it. That said, it's not perfect with nVDA either, and I still like JAWS enough to be bothered about not being able to use it with Firefox 57, so like most other screen-reader users (I suspect), I'm on the ESR now. -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Roger Newell Sent: December 2, 2017 10:48 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Best browser to use with Jaws That is true of all screen readers and is a result of emerging web standards being applied in many different ways.
