Becky, Since IE10 using Jaws14 and even Jaws 15 on windows 7 machines I, like others, have seen this frustrating event of thinking you are activating a link when you press enter on the link, only to have nothing happen. Possible solutions are to press the application key while on the link and if a choice is "open" or "open in a new window", then try and activate the link by pressing enter on the menu choice. Other times, on some web sites, doing the above does not give you any choices to activate the link, in which case I will bring up the list of links with insert key plus F7 and try activating the link that way. Sometimes, I find Shift plus enter key is needed to open the link. On other web sites, sometimes having to route jaws to PC and activate the jaws cursor with replication of the left click does the trick. Just seems to be the vagaries of some web sites. But I am sure some more sophisticated user on the list may have another explanation or suggestions. I think some of us are also finding that to "go back" to the previous web page can be problematic and require persistence in using the "go back" command of alt left arrow.

Using Windows 7 and JAWS 15 with IE 11, I find that the links on some sites will not work when I hit enter on them. I noticed this also with JFW 15 before I went to IE 11. One site I just experienced this with is http://www.vermontcountrystore.com/store/#main Anything I can change to get these links to work? Is this just an Internet problem? Thanks for any help.
