Next time I update my online job application, I'll try to remember that.  There 
are one or two boxes where this trick would be just the thing, if it works.

when you're focused on the combobox, press the enter or spacebar to open it and 
then alt+down arrow to keep it from automatically activating.
now you can use your down or up arrow to make your choice. to activate your 
choice, press alt+up arrow. that's what I do when I come across this problem.

Hi,

I have a web site I need to interact with, but I'm having trouble with
certain combo boxes. When I arrow down rather than Jaws reading the
choices, the item is activated which takes me to another page. It's
maddening because I know the choice I want is about halfway down the
list but I can't get to it.

I'm sure there must be a way of doing this. Could someone step me
through the process?

Thanks,
Kimber
