Mario, I rarely use the JAWS cursor with Firefox. I just tried, and I find it doesn't work on my system, either. The result is different, however. Instead of JAWS verbalizing the cursor keys, I can get it to speak only one line of any screen. Firefox remains completely navigable with the PC cursor.
I recall reading somewhere, probably on this list, a technical explanation for this development with the Internet and browsers. I didn't keep the item and I lack the technological sophistication to understand it. However, it does seem that the JAWS cursor has limits. I'm using FF 28, Win7 and JAWS 15.0.7023 (not the most current release). -----Original Message----- From: Jfw [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Mario Brusco via Jfw Sent: Wednesday, May 07, 2014 9:52 AM To: The Jaws for Windows support list. Subject: JAWS and Firefox frustration hi Listers, I recently reinstall Firefox, which I used the Ninite installer. but now I'm unable to use the JAWSCursor to review the screen. after routing JAWS to PC, JAWS just repeats "blank" with whatever I press, cursor keys, page down/up, tab/shift+tab, etc. I'm not sure if there's a setting to enable/disable. Uninstalling/reinstalling doesn't help, the problem remains. I'm using JAWS 14 on Windows 7. _______________________________________________ Jfw mailing list [email protected] http://lists.the-jdh.com/mailman/listinfo/jfw_lists.the-jdh.com _______________________________________________ Jfw mailing list [email protected] http://lists.the-jdh.com/mailman/listinfo/jfw_lists.the-jdh.com
