Hi Sharon; Sometimes it's a toss up. When you enter forms mode you may not need to hit the alt key, just the down arrow.

Hi all, I have the latest Jaws update before 8 and I use ie 7 and have no trouble at all with combo boxes.

So, indeed, this is a wierd one. I think Flore is correct in suggesting that you need the jaws 7.01 update to jaws 7.

First at least one of the linked recipes is a 404 No Page Found (Peach Cream Cheese Desert), so that could have been your problem. Second, do you have JavaScript enabled? If you do, you can arrow down to your choice, then press enter. If not, the select boxes on that site don't work. -- Benjamin Hawkes-Lewis -- No virus found in this incoming message.

Hello. use alt+down arrow to open thelist box. i do that for all combo boxes now a days. I need information on navigating combo boxes. Here's the situation: Running Jaws 7.1, and Windows XP pro. I have met up with combo boxes on web sites that when you attempt to arrow down through the choices Jaws will read the choice and then throw you back to the web page. It is very difficult to navigate the choices. Is there a way to work through this situation. thank you in advance for the information. Smile!
