Sure is a stubborn button, Ted. That's the government for you.

 

I went there using Firefox and pressed Enter on the button, then tried the
spacebar, then tried to find the blasted thing with the mouse. I had no
better results than you. I was able to get past the button by putting the
virtual cursor on it, pressing the context key, and choosing open link in a
new window. Shift-F10 does the same thing, by the way. After I got past
that, there was a link called find a doctor. Redundant, right? That's the
government for you. I clicked on the link using the Enter key and a page
opened up with a Table with radio buttons where you choose your state.
That's as far as I got; I'm about 14 years from Medicare.

 

I'm sure the context key approach will work in IE 8 as well. Hope this helps
you; if not let the list know.

Dear List:
I am using Windows XP and Internet Explorer 8.
When I go to the website called
www.anthem.com/medicare
and try to click on a button called
Find a Doctor
all I hear is a soft click sound and nothing happens.  I tried to click it
with the mouse but the button would not focus using the insert-plus cursor
to mouse command.  Any ideas as to what this means and is there a solution?
Thanks.  Regards:  Ted Larson
