Hi Wendy, I'm not having the IE8 problems you are with either issue, and I haven't seen anyone reporting them here, so here are some guesses:
* for the alt key, could you be hitting it more than once, or could you have a literally stickey key? can you try using the other alt key for a while to see if the problem happens regardless of which alt key is used? for the international site message, is your internet service being provided by an employer, an educational institution, or anyone other than a normal commercial ISP? they may have some security arrangement in place which bars some or all international sites if so. hth, Chip -----Original Message----- From: Wendy Sharpe [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Sunday, February 14, 2010 10:13 AM To: 'Eyes Window' Subject: IE8 behaviour I don't know whether this is a Window-Eyes or an IE8 problem, but often when I press alt to open the menu bar, choose what I want to do or just come out again with alt, it says menu closed, and then immediately opens the menu bar again. I have to press alt several times to get the menu to close, or alt tab away from IE8 and then back again. Another thing I have just noticed on the view menu. I have been having trouble with a particular site which should have some MP3 files to download on it, but there is just text on the page and no links or controls of any kind. I went into the view menu, and found that one item says "international website address disabled". What does this mean? I pressed enter on it, but it is still disabled. Does this have any bearing on the page lacking any controls? Wendy If you reply to this message it will be delivered to the original sender only.
