Re: [JAWS-Users] Firefox 4 and JAWS 9
Guess I'll stick with Firefox 3.6 as long as I can. I disabled the automatic update feature, so Firefox won't take off and install version 4.0 on its own.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Firefox 4 and JAWS 9
There is an update to Firefox 3.6 available as of three days or so ago. Make sure you uncheck automatic updates from Tools/options/advanced on the update tab You can still manually chekc for updates from firefox's help menu. this will alert you to security updates of firefox 3.6 which will probably stil be forthcoming for a while at least. Firefox 4 has some issues still even with the latest builds of jaws 11 and 12. If you want to test its compatibility with jaws 9, you can try that with the portable version of firefox 4 without interfering with your install of firefox 3.6. hth Doris At 12:59 PM 5/2/2011, you wrote: Does Firefox 4.0 work with JAWS 9? A number of members of this and other lists have reported problems using Firefox 4.0 with JAWS 12, so I'm wondering whether Firefox 4.0 will even work at all with JAWS 9. This morening, when I launched Firefox 3.6, which works fine with JAWS 9, it tried to update itself automatically without my intervention to version 4.0, but I was able to cancel the download before it completed. I don't want to update to Firefox 4.0 only to discover that it doesn't work with JAWS9, and then have problems rolling back to Firefox 3.6. Thanks.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Firefox 4 revisited
It works with JAWS 10, 11 and 12 quite nicely, it should also work with earlier versions as well, I just helped my girlfriend update her Webvisum.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Firefox 4?
There are still some issues with accessibility also. and, of course, the lack of webvisum is a major show stopper. Firefox 3.6 will continue to receive security fixes for some time to come, I am sure, just as Firefox 3.5 did. For anyone wanting to try out Firefox 4, they can do so using the portable version wihtout jeopardizing their regular install of 3.6. hth Doris At 11:57 AM 3/23/2011, you wrote: Thanks for the warning.
