John,

If it's the Infomation Bar, more about that in a moment.


Does JAWS say 'link' when on the title's graphic? Sometimes ctrl and spacebar can open a menu undefined by JAWS or a 'box'. There is already a separate site called Dropbox, so it's best to avoid loose terms like that one. My first thought was of a combo box, which you would open with alt+DownArrow.

Also, pres alt-n to bring up the Information Bar (probably that could be it). Then Allow once or Allow Always, depending on your choice, which you press space then may arrow to. Then you might enter or double-click to confirm.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] drop boxes

Hi list. I was trying to download an audio book from a website and could not find a download link. A sighted friend said that when she moved the cursor to a graphic of the title a drop box appeared with a number of options including a download link. I have tried both the Jaws cursor and Pc cursor but cannot access this. There is no shortcut key ie "d" to use, and the links list does not include the dropbox. I am using JFW13 and Win7, and have tried both IE 10 and latest firefox with no success. Can anyone suggest any solutions. Thanks in advance.
