Listers, and Rod Hutton in particular, since he and I have been trying
to figure this one out for a while.
OK, lets start from the beginning.
Early this morning, I learned on another list that FS is offering JAWS
for home users free of charge from today (apparently) until June 30. The
interesting thing from my perspective was that I was planning to
purchase the annual subscription today, until this opportunity suddenly
presented itself. But here is the kicker.
For some reason, after installing JAWS, it occurred to me that maybe I
should check and see if this installation might make some kind of a
difference with Window-Eyes's browse mode, and lo and behold,
Window-Eyes seems to have now Ben rehabilitated. for an example, I can
now go to the BARD site using IE, and my headers are back. I can also
tab backward from the login edit box and go directly to the login
button, where I couldn't do that, at least not since I brought my
computer home from the shop.
I have no idea what might have been the problem, other than that some
how a component of Windows having to do with browse mode might either
have been missing, or maybe simply corrupted. And that's why I turned to
those far more technically savvy for some insight into what might be
going on with this thing.
I decided to opt for the JAWS annual plan because I really need to get
used to being without Window-Eyes as soon as at all possible. But to
think that by installing it's former rival would have lead to its
resurrection is quite baffling.
Oh well, I've got nothing else to say about it at the moment, so I will
await any input from you all, if you should think that this phenomena is
at all as interesting to you as it is to me <smile>.
