After installing Google Chrome, I found repeated problems with JAWS 15 especially landing on the edit field and was told by JAWS Customer Support that Google Chrome is not compatible with JAWS and I checked again a couple of weeks ago and received the same answer from JAWS SUPPORT.

Fastest browser, with sluggish combo boxes?

Hopefully someone can provide a little better response than "I got rid of the thing." I would encourage everyone to keep IE, Firefox and Chrome around because there are invariably things you'll find that will work better with Chrome than anything else. If nothing else, Chrome is the fastest browser of the bunch. Not sure why there is an unusual amount of Chrome hate on this list. I admit that combo boxes are a little quirky and there may be occasions where depending on the way they're done, there may be some problems. However, if you enable Forms Mode and then press Alt + Down Arrow, for many combo boxes, you'll be able to cause them to work although they may be a little sluggish and quirky compared to how they work, for example, in IE. Combo boxes are quite iffy with JAWS these days no matter what browser you use.
