Just open it up and hit litter of your state.

Hi list. I just encountered one of those tricky combo boxes that
JAWS has trouble dealing with. I'm trying to purchase new foam
cushions for my sofa from buyfoam.com, but when I get to the page to
calculate shipping charges, there is a combo box with a list of
states. But when I focus on this combo box and hit Enter to open it
and then try to scroll through it with down arrow or use first
letter navigation to select New York, the first state on the list,
Alabama is automatically selected. If I open the combo box by
hitting Enter and then try Alt-down arrow to scroll down the list of
states, I remain stuck on Alabama. There does not appear to be any
way to "freeze" this list so that you can scroll through it to
select the state you want. As soon as you press the down arrow key,
forms mode is turned off and the first state is selected. Alt-down
arrow does not seem to work. And Insert-F8 just brings up the tool
bar. Is there any work around for this problem? Interestingly, the
other combo boxes on this site seem to work normally. I'm using JAWS
9 with XP. Thanks for any help.
