Josh, I haven't found a way to get around this either. Apple, who claims that
they are all for accessability in their software, has distributed an
application with a dialog box that is totally inaccessible via the keyboard.
Also, note that the QuickTime player is supposed to be free, but yet whenever
you start it it brings up the inaccessible dialog about QuickTime Pro. Real
accessability folks. :-)
I have JFW 3.00.25 on both of my workstations and haven't been able to get
around this.
My 2 cents...
