Hi Don:

Ctrl+9 will put you back on the page.

This works fine with IE8 (tab browsing enabled) and JAWS11.
It should also work fine with IE7.

I'm not sure if it will work if tab browsing is disabled.

I use the tab browsing feature all the time.
It's very useful to have multiple web sites inside the same window, just
pressing ctrl+tab to switch between them.

I do not know if there is anything you can do about that.  I do not know 
whether this is a new JAWS feature or a new Microsoft accessibility feature.

It is supposed to make most of the toolbar areas accessible just by Tabbing 
around after reaching the bottom of the page.  It is occasionally nice to be

able to get to these areas.  Most of the time it is just annoying! 
Especially since the focus sometimes moves to this area and I get lost. 
When this happens, the best way to find my way back to the page is to press 
F6 until it announces it is in the address bar.  Then I press Shift + F6, to

get back to the page.  I usually then use Control + Home to get to the top 
of the page.

If anyone has found a better way, I would like to know about it.
